Coprosma cotoneaster is an excellent hedging and ornamental shrub characterised by its fine silver-grey foliage and densely interlaced branchlets. In early summer, it produces bright yellow flowers that create a striking contrast against the leaves. This hardy plant is well-suited for drought-prone areas, making it an ideal choice for low-maintenance gardens and landscaping projects. It thrives in well-drained soil and can adapt to a range of conditions, including coastal environments, making it a popular option for both residential and ecological restoration planting.
