How to grow Pittosporum 'Jade' in NZ

Pittosporum 'Jade' grows best in a sunny to partially shaded position with well drained soil. It adapts to a wide range of soil types and performs well throughout much of New Zealand. Water regularly during establishment to encourage strong root development, then only during extended dry periods. Incorporating compost into the soil before planting can improve establishment and growth. Applying mulch around the base helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, and promote healthy root development.

Pittosporum 'Jade' care tips

Pittosporum 'Jade' is a low maintenance shrub that requires minimal attention once established. Water during prolonged dry spells, especially in the first few years after planting. Trim lightly as required to maintain shape or create a formal hedge. Feed in spring with a balanced fertiliser to encourage fresh growth and healthy foliage. Remove any damaged or dead branches as needed. Its hardy nature and strong growth make it an easy plant to maintain in a wide range of garden situations.

Pittosporum 'Jade' size, spacing, and growth rate

Pittosporum 'Jade' typically grows to around 1.5 to 2 metres tall and wide, forming a dense and rounded shrub. Growth is moderate to fast, allowing plants to establish quickly and provide effective screening or structure. Space plants approximately 80 centimetres to 1 metre apart for hedging or 1.5 metres apart when grown as individual specimens. This spacing allows adequate airflow while creating a full and attractive display as plants mature.
