non deciduous trees
If you want year-round foliage, structure, and a vibrant landscape even in the depths of winter, non deciduous trees are the perfect addition to your New Zealand garden. Non deciduous trees, also known as evergreen trees, retain their leaves throughout the year, offering continual greenery, privacy screening, and habitat for native birds. Whether you're designing a windbreak, bordering your property, or searching for a feature tree that provides a lasting impression through every season, you'll find non deciduous trees incredibly rewarding to grow.
Sequoiadendron giganteum (Sequoia gigantea Tree)
Sequoiadendron giganteum, commonly known as the Giant Redwood, is a large, evergreen tree and aptly named for its red coloured wood. It features feathery, dark green foliage which is held on broad branches emerging off a central trunk as it grows to about 60 m tall and 20 m wide over several hundred years. The Giant Redwood is commonly grown as a specimen, planted to provide shelter, or used for timber production.
Daphniphyllum macropodum
Daphniphyllum macropodum is a truly impressive evergreen tree. The young growth in spring resembles masses of miniature Cycads and has red hues. Older foliage sits as a rosette with a downward arch and is dark green. The combination of old and new foliage produces quite a dramatic display and affords the tree a lush appearance. Clusters of small, cream flowers in spring result in purple berries in autumn. It typically grows to 3 m tall and the same wide, and can be trimmed as necessary. Best results with this tree are achieved when it is grown in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of moderate frost once established. This evergreen is typically grown as a specimen, added to a mixed planting, maintained in a courtyard garden, included in a tropical garden, or planted around outdoor living areas.
