Dacrydium cupressinum (Rimu Tree)
Dacrydium cupressinum, commonly known as Rimu or Red Pine, is an iconic and slow-growing tree. The juvenile form features drooping branches densely clothed with short, light green, needle-like leaves. A mature tree has a broad crown and eventually reaches a height of 25 m and a width of 10 m, with leaves that are now short and sharp. Dacrydium cupressinum is suited to revegetation plantings or for growing as a specimen in a large garden or park.

Fagus sylvatica Purpurea
Fagus sylvatica 'Purpurea', commonly known as the Copper Beech Tree, grows as a stately, deciduous tree with a broad and spreading crown of colourful, purple foliage. The glossy leaves emerge deep purple in spring, age to purple-green in summer, then develop copper tones in autumn before falling. Left untrimmed, it will grow to about 25 m tall and 18 m wide. Fagus sylvatica 'Purpurea' makes for a lovely specimen, with mature specimens making a dramatic statement in the landscape and providing great summer shade. It is also commonly used for avenue planting, trimmed into a hedge, used for screening, or added to a mixed planting in a large garden.
