Coprosma Black Cloud Details

Coprosma Black Cloud is a low growing, evergreen shrub renowned for its dark foliage. The tiny leaves on this NZ native are black-bronze and held densely on rigid stems. It grows with a tidy, rounded habit to about 70 cm tall and 1.5 m wide, giving the strongest leaf colourings when planted in full sun on a well-drained site. This black Coprosma will also grow well in partial shade but tends to lose its denseness and colouring will be lighter. It is also tolerant of dry periods, frost, cold climates, wind, and coastal conditions. Coprosma Black Cloud is commonly added to a mixed planting, used as a groundcover, included in borders, or mass planted on a bank.

Coprosma Black Cloud Plant Spacing

Coprosma Black Cloud makes a fine addition to a garden. Generally, they are planted to become discrete balls rather than merging. The ideal spacing is 2.5 m apart if you want them to be discrete. At a 1 m spacing the plants will merge and become an effective ground cover.
