ALECTRYON EXCELSUS
'Titoki'
Native, growing 3m to 6m tall. Makes a good small shade tree or specimen tree, with shiny green leaves, and red berries for the birds. Trims well. Frost tolerant. (GOOD FOR: BIRDS, DAMP, DRY, FOLIAGE, HEDGE, NATIVE, SEMI-SHADE, SPECIMEN, SUN)
Our experience using these in the Auckland region:
One of my favorite native trees - very versitile, I often use them for along fences, and then uderplant them with Camellias, Japanese anemones, Star Jasmine, Gardenias, Nandinas. They can be trimmed. \r\nDon't plant them in a really coastal site - they still grow, but get very windburnt from salt winds.
