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 tall, soft, evergreen screen along fence lines, boundaries, and driveways. These advanced 500mm / 75L pots are a great choice when you want faster privacy, larger plants, and a more established look in the garden.
