Why Choose Rhaphiolepis For Your NZ Garden?
These shrubs thrive in full sun to part shade and are highly adaptable to NZ’s coastal, urban, and inland conditions. Their resilience to wind, pollution, and drought makes them excellent choices for sustainable landscaping. The evergreen foliage provides consistent structure and greenery throughout the year, while seasonal flowers add vibrant colour and attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, enriching your garden’s ecosystem.
Care And Maintenance
Rhaphiolepis plants require minimal upkeep, making them ideal for gardeners seeking low-maintenance options. Regular pruning after flowering encourages bushier growth and better flower production. They prefer well-drained soil and moderate watering but can tolerate dry periods once established. Applying a balanced fertilizer in early spring supports healthy foliage and enhances bloom quality. Mulching helps retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
