Coprosma kirkii

Creeping Coprosma

Description:
A hardy New Zealand native groundcover with a low, spreading habit and glossy green foliage. Coprosma 'Kirkii' forms a dense mat of intertwined stems, making it an excellent choice for covering banks, retaining walls and garden edges. Its trailing growth habit creates a soft cascading effect, while its evergreen foliage provides year-round structure and interest.

Height:
20-40cm

Width:
1-1.5m

Position:
Prefers full sun to partial shade. Performs best in a sunny position but will tolerate some shade. Hardy and adaptable, making it suitable for exposed and coastal locations.

Soil:
Prefers a well-drained soil but is adaptable to a range of conditions, including poorer soils. Avoid consistently wet or waterlogged areas.

Uses:

• Groundcover for banks, slopes and difficult areas
• Retaining walls and rockeries where its trailing habit can be displayed
• Low-maintenance garden areas
• Coastal and exposed gardens
• Containers and hanging baskets for a cascading effect
• Mass planting for weed suppression and coverage

Care Tips:

• Water regularly while establishing, then during prolonged dry periods
• Trim lightly to maintain shape and encourage denser growth if required
• Apply mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds
• Feed in spring with a balanced slow-release fertiliser to encourage healthy growth
• Hardy once established and tolerant of wind, coastal conditions and dry periods
