The Maki Podocarpus (Podocarpus macrophyllus 'Maki') is a versatile and low-maintenance evergreen shrub or small tree with attractive, dark green foliage. This elegant plant is an excellent choice for those looking to add year-round interest and texture to their garden or landscape.
Maki Podocarpus is a slow-growing evergreen that typically reaches a height of 8 to 15 feet and a width of 5 to 8 feet. It thrives in USDA hardiness zones 7 to 11, making it suitable for various climates. The Maki Podocarpus is an ideal plant for a range of landscape applications, including foundation plantings, privacy screens, and hedges. It is also deer-resistant, making it a valuable addition to gardens where deer are a concern.
One of the Maki Podocarpus's standout features is its attractive, dark green foliage. The plant's narrow, lance-shaped leaves are soft to the touch and arranged in a dense, upright manner, creating a unique, columnar appearance. The dense habit of this evergreen makes it an excellent choice for creating privacy screens or hedges, providing visual interest throughout the year.
The Maki Podocarpus is also highly adaptable to various soil types and pH levels, although it prefers well-draining soil. It can tolerate full sun to partial shade, making it a valuable option for those looking to add texture and color to different areas of their garden or landscape.
