Casuarina glauca ‘Greenwave’

Casuarina glauca ‘Green Wave’ is a hardy, fast-growing evergreen shrub known for its soft, cascading foliage and graceful, windswept appearance. A compact selection of the Australian native she-oak, it forms a dense, spreading mound that adds texture and movement to the landscape.
Unlike typical leafy shrubs, Casuarina features fine, needle-like branchlets that resemble pine needles but are actually segmented stems. ‘Green Wave’ has vibrant green foliage that gently arches outward, creating a flowing, wave-like effect—hence its name. It generally grows low and spreading, making it ideal as a groundcover, for embankments, or as a soft edging plant.

This tough plant thrives in full sun and adapts well to a wide range of soil types, including sandy and coastal soils. It is drought-tolerant once established and handles wind and salt spray exceptionally well, making it perfect for seaside gardens. Minimal maintenance is required, and light pruning can help maintain its compact shape.

With its unique texture and hardy nature, Casuarina ‘Green Wave’ is an excellent choice for modern landscapes, coastal plantings, and low-maintenance gardens.
