Metrocideros

Metrocideros is another versatile landscaping plant that this lab produces in large quantities. We produce two varieties of this plant.

The glorious red colour of the Fiji new growth foliage is used extensively in statement hedges. With regular pruning this plant has proven to be one of the most colourful hedging options around. It gives an interesting and visual uplift in the landscaping environment. The Brisbane City Council have used this plant in many areas of Brisbane with great success. The magnificent colour of the Fiji’s foliage accents roundabouts, medium strips, footpaths and even in parks with great effect.

The soft shadowy green and contrasting darker green foliage of Tahiti makes it a favourite for the patio and the feature areas of a courtyard. The new growth forms as a ruby red bud before breaking open. The attractive and very soft flowers of the Tahiti make this plant and extremely eye catching specimen that anyone would be proud to have on display.
