Griselinia littoralis (Broadleaf)
Queenstown Nursery
Griselinia littoralis (Broadleaf) is one of New Zealand's most popular hedging shrubs, valued for its large, glossy green leaves and strong, upright structure. When left untrimmed, it can develop into a small, round-headed tree, offering excellent shelter and year-round coverage. Small berries appear on mature plants, attracting native birds and adding seasonal interest.
Typically reaching around 6m tall and 2.5m wide as a hedge, Broadleaf thrives in full sun to partial shade and is highly tolerant of drought, wind and coastal conditions. In sheltered sites, untrimmed trees can exceed 10m. Hardy and low-maintenance, it performs reliably across Queenstown and Central Otago when planted in free-draining soil. Trim in summer to maintain a dense, tidy hedge or screen.
Choose Griselinia littoralis for a dependable, evergreen NZ native that delivers glossy foliage, excellent shelter and outstanding hedging performance in a wide range of environments.
