Pittosporum ralphii – Tough NZ Native Shrub for Screening and Shelter

Pittosporum ralphii is a hardy, evergreen native shrub or small tree ideal for hedging, screening, and native planting projects across New Zealand. Known for its narrow, grey-green leaves and upright form, it typically grows to 4–6 metres tall and 3–4 metres wide.

In spring, small dark red to purple flowers appear, offering seasonal interest and attracting native insects.
