Olearia x hastii is a tough and easy to grow evergreen with a dense, bushy habit of growth well suited to trimming and so making a good hedge.
The Daisy bushes are tough easily grown evergreen shrubs. A profusion of creamy white yellow centred daisy like flowers. Ideal for low hedging and as individual shrubs. The two-tone glaucous foliage is popular with garden designers as it fits well with mediterranean and silvery foliage design themes as well as the ‘nonna chic’ trend.
The growth rate of Olearia x haastii is typically 30cm per year.
Site and soil – any normal well drained soil but they will also thrive in windy or exposed and coastal conditions. This is a very drought tolerant shrub.
How many plants? – we recommend 3 plants per metre when planting a hedge of Olearia x haastii.
When to plant? – these are pot grown plants and so can be planted at any time of year as there is no root disturbance. Adding Rootgrow when planting is proven to improve establishment and early growth. Keep the young plants well watered for the first season while they establish, especially on free draining soils.
