Coastal Tree Daisy
Tākupurenga

Coastal Tree Daisy (Olearia solandri) is a hardy native shrub well adapted to exposed coastal and riparian environments.

​

Its white flowers provide an important food source for native pollinators, while its dense growth offers shelter for birds and helps protect more vulnerable plants from wind and exposure.

​

This resilient species is particularly valuable in restoration projects where shelter, biodiversity and habitat creation are important objectives.

​

Its ability to tolerate wind and salt spray also makes it a useful addition to many Waikawa Beach gardens.
