Coprosma ‘Sahara Ruby’

Coprosma ‘Sahara Ruby’ is a vibrant, evergreen shrub prized for its dramatic, ruby-red foliage that emerges as new growth and gradually matures to deep burgundy with hints of bronze, creating year-round colour and visual impact in gardens and landscapes. Its compact, bushy habit makes it ideal for both feature planting and structural use.

This shrub typically grows 1–1.5 meters tall and wide, forming a dense, rounded canopy that works well for hedges, borders, mass plantings, or container displays. Its glossy, slightly leathery leaves enhance the depth and richness of its fiery tones. Coprosma ‘Sahara Ruby’ produces small, inconspicuous flowers, with the main ornamental appeal being its striking foliage.

It thrives in full sun to partial shade, with the brightest ruby tones developing in full sun, and prefers well-drained soil. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant, hardy, and low-maintenance, requiring only occasional pruning to maintain shape and encourage denser growth.

Ideal for colourful hedges, mixed borders, container planting, and ornamental landscaping, Coprosma ‘Sahara Ruby’ delivers year-round vibrancy, striking foliage contrast, and low-maintenance beauty, making it a perfect choice for modern and contemporary gardens.
