Corokia cheesmanii is a distinctive New Zealand native shrub known for its intricate, zigzagging branches and small, silvery-green leaves. Compact and naturally sculptural, it brings year-round texture and interest to gardens, hedges, and native plantings. In spring, it produces clusters of small, star-shaped yellow flowers that are followed by bright red berries, providing food for birds and a splash of seasonal colour. Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, Corokia cheesmanii thrives in a range of conditions, including coastal and exposed sites. Ideal for low hedging, borders, or as a feature shrub with a uniquely wiry charm.
