Pittosporum eugenioides
Pittosporum eugenioides, also known as lemonwood or tarata, is a fast-growing, evergreen tree native to New Zealand. It typically grows to 10 metres tall and 5 metres wide, with a pyramidal or rounded shape. This tree is well-known for its lush green foliage with wavy edges and a subtle lemon fragrance when crushed. In spring, it produces clusters of small, yellow-cream flowers that add seasonal interest and attract native pollinators. Due to its speed of growth and dense canopy, it is often used for shelter, screening, revegetation, and larger native plantings.
