Coprosma ‘Lobster’

Description:
Evergreen shrub grown for its glossy, small foliage that emerges in bright red-orange tones with darker burgundy highlights, resembling the colours of a lobster shell. The leaves are neat, dense, and highly reflective, giving it the signature “mirror plant” look. It has a naturally compact, rounded habit, making it excellent for both feature planting and hedging. Colour intensifies in cooler months, adding year-round interest.
