Corokia 'Sunsplash'

Description

Description:

A hardy native shrub that has a bushy habit and attractive coloured foliage.

Flower:

Small starry, yellow flowers are mildly fragrant and are followed by small red berries.

Size:

Will grow to a height of 3m if left but easily trimmed between 50cm and 2m.

Growing Conditions:

Best if planted in full sun or part shade. Very hardy and can handle strong winds, coastal conditions and dry soils once established. So if planted in a sheltered spot in good soil with plenty of water and fertilizer, they will absolutely thrive.

Care:

Little care required, but regular trims and fertilising will ensure nice form and dense growth if used as a hedge. Perhaps water every now and then in dry spells.

Uses:

  • Most common use is low to medium sized hedging.
  • Great ‘filler’ shrub in any garden.
  • The berries are great for attracting birds.

Comments:

All Corokia are suitable for hedging, it just comes down to personal preference to leaf colour and shape. The spacing will depend on the height you require. For a low hedge of between 50cm – 1m we recommend you plant them 30cm – 50cm apart. For a hedge of between 1m – 2m we recommend planting them 50cm – 1m apart.
