Griselinia 'Canterbury Red'

Queenstown Nursery

Griselinia 'Canterbury Red' is a distinctive NZ native shrub known for its glossy green foliage flushed with warm red tones, especially on new growth. Its upright, dense habit makes it an excellent choice for hedging, screening and shelter, adding both structure and subtle colour variation to the landscape. The foliage is slightly thicker and more cold-tolerant than standard Griselinia forms, giving it strong performance in cooler regions.

Growing to around 3-4m tall and 2-3m wide, 'Canterbury Red' thrives in full sun to partial shade and handles wind, coastal exposure and a range of soil types when well-drained. Hardy and low-maintenance, it performs reliably across Queenstown and Central Otago, establishing quickly and responding well to regular trimming. Evergreen and resilient, it provides year-round coverage and a fresh, modern look.

Choose Griselinia 'Canterbury Red' for a hardy, attractive NZ native shrub that delivers glossy foliage, subtle red highlights and excellent hedging performance in exposed or challenging environments.
