Coprosma Lighthouse ground cover spacing

Coprosma Lighthouse makes for a fantastic ground cover due its short stature and dense growth habit. The ideal spacing is 75 cm apart if you want a dense covering quickly. You can increase the spacing to 1 m apart if you have time but that may also involve a bit more weeding as you wait for the plants to merge.
