native daphne nz
Native daphne NZ is a sought-after plant for gardens across New Zealand thanks to its delicate flowers, resilient nature, and ability to support local biodiversity. While the name "daphne" often brings to mind the fragrant shrubs from Europe and Asia, New Zealand's own native daphne is something quite different—and just as beautiful. If you are searching for a native daphne NZ to enhance your garden with a hardy, low-growing groundcover, look no further than Pimelea, a genus represented in Aotearoa by several wonderful species.
