Waterhousia

Posted by Beebs QLD Aust (My Page) on

Just wondering how tall and wide Waterhousia floribunda get? I live on acreage and my neighbour wants to plant some along the property line. I got variable info from the net re height (from 8 to 25m). Do they make much mess? (I don't care, but the neighbour wanted something that didn't leave much leaf litter).

thanks

My brother has one in his garden on the Sunshine Coast. I was there on the weekend, and it seemed to have dropped quite a lot of leaves. I can't help much with the eventual height, sorry.

The height will probably depend on how much sun. The taller heights would be from plants that had to compete for light, eg rainforest, while the shorter height would be in full sun.

Being a riparian species, they like water so they may not do so well if they have to rely on rain.
