Waterhousia Floribunda 300mm Pots
Waterhousia floribunda, commonly known as Weeping Lilly Pilly, is a beautiful evergreen Australian native with soft, weeping foliage and a naturally dense growth habit. It is a popular choice for privacy screening, boundary planting, fence lines, driveways, and creating a lush green backdrop in the garden.
These 300mm pots are a great size for customers wanting a larger, more established plant than smaller starter pots, while still being easier to handle and plant than advanced 400mm, 500mm, or 100L stock.
Features
- Evergreen Australian native
- Soft weeping green foliage
- Excellent for privacy screening
- Great for boundary planting and fence lines
- Dense growth habit once established
- Bird attracting
- Hardy and reliable in Sydney gardens
- Good larger-size option without going into advanced pot sizes
Position
Waterhousia floribunda grows best in:
- Full sun
- Part shade
- Well-drained soil
- Garden beds
- Boundary lines
- Open landscape areas
For the best screening result, plant in a sunny to part-shaded position with good soil preparation.
Ideal For
- Privacy screening
- Hedging
- Boundary planting
- Fence lines
- Driveways
- Native-style gardens
- Soft evergreen backdrops
- Customers wanting a faster result than smaller plants
Planting Distance
For a dense screen or hedge, plant approximately 1m–1.5m apart.
Plant closer together for faster coverage, or further apart if allowing the plants to grow into larger feature trees.
Height at Maturity
Waterhousia floribunda can grow to approximately 8m–10m+ tall, depending on conditions and pruning.
It can also be maintained lower as a tall hedge or privacy screen with regular trimming.
Environmental Requirements
Soil: Prefers well-drained soil with regular moisture, especially while establishing.
Climate: Well suited to warm, temperate, and coastal garden conditions.
Durability: Hardy once established and suitable for general Sydney garden conditions.
Care
Water regularly after planting until the roots are established. Mulch around the base to help retain moisture and keep the root zone cool.
Apply a slow-release fertiliser during the warmer growing months to encourage strong, healthy growth.
Trimming
Waterhousia floribunda can be trimmed to encourage thicker growth and maintained as a tall hedge or privacy screen.
Major trimming and shaping is best done during Spring and Summer, while the plant is actively growing.
Design Ideas
Waterhousia floribunda is perfect for creating a soft, evergreen privacy screen along fence lines, boundaries, and driveways. These 300mm pots are a great option when you want a stronger starting size than small pots while still keeping planting simple and manageable.
