Coprosma 'Hawera'
Description:
A hardy New Zealand native shrub with a low, spreading growth habit and small, glossy green leaves that hug the stems, creating a neat, compact appearance. Its foliage develops attractive bronze and orange tones during the cooler months, adding seasonal interest. With its cascading habit and tolerance of coastal conditions, Coprosma 'Hawera' is an excellent choice for groundcover, edging and low-maintenance landscapes.
