Why Griselinia Is Perfect for Coastal and Urban GardensGriselinia is one of the few hedging plants that thrives in both coastal and urban conditions. Thanks to its native origins, it is well-suited to New Zealand’s climate. Here’s why it’s ideal for these environments: Coastal Gardens: With its high tolerance for salt and wind, Griselinia performs beautifully near the ocean, where other plants may struggle.
Urban Spaces: Its ability to withstand pollution, grow in tight spaces, and provide noise and privacy barriers makes it a natural choice for city dwellers.
Whether you’re framing a property, creating a secluded backyard retreat, or softening hard landscape lines, Griselinia is the answer.
Add Colour and Texture with Camellia and HydrangeaTo further enhance your outdoor space, consider pairing your Griselinia hedge with flowering shrubs like Camellia and Hydrangea. These plants provide seasonal interest, vivid colour, and contrasting textures, elevating your garden design. Camellia – Year-Round BeautyCamellias are evergreen shrubs that bloom during the cooler months, offering vibrant red, pink, or white flowers when many other plants are dormant. Their dense foliage complements the structure of Griselinia, while their blooms add colour and life to your winter garden. Excellent for shaded areas
Works beautifully as a companion plant for hedges
Low maintenance and long-lived
Camellias pair well with Griselinia in formal garden designs, offering a timeless and elegant look. Hydrangea – Soft Blooms for Summer CharmFor a burst of summer colour, Hydrangeas are a perfect match. These deciduous shrubs produce large, round clusters of flowers in shades of blue, pink, white, and purple. Their foliage contrasts beautifully with Griselinia’s shiny green leaves, and their seasonal changes add variety and interest. Hydrangeas bring a romantic, cottage-style touch that softens the structured lines of Griselinia.
