Griselinia Ardmore Emerald (Kapuka)

5 from 1 customers

Griselinia 'Ardmore Emerald', also known as Kapuka, is a robust New Zealand native tree prized for its glossy dark green foliage and rapid growth. Ideal for hedging, shelter belts, and privacy screens, it quickly forms a dense, evergreen barrier that thrives in a wide range of conditions—including coastal and wind-exposed sites. Its tidy form, minimal maintenance needs, and strong tolerance to salt-laden winds make it a dependable choice for both rural and urban landscapes across New Zealand.
