Best Native Trees To Plant
Carpodetus serratus
Carpodetus serratus, commonly known as the Putaputaweta Tree or Marble Leaf, is an attractive, NZ native tree with spreading branches that host marbled foliage. It grows with an open framework, though the juvenile form tends to have distinctly tangled growth and a greater degree of leaf marbling. It typically grows to 8 m in height and 3 m in width, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. Carpodetus serratus is commonly grown as a specimen, added to a mixed planting in a large garden, or included in revegetation and native projects.
