Natives for Full Sun
NZ native plants for full sun are ideal for bright, exposed garden positions where plants need to handle strong sunlight, wind, and periods of dryness. This collection features tough, reliable natives such as hebes, olearias, coprosmas, flaxes, grasses, and groundcovers that thrive in open, sunny conditions. Many are well suited to coastal gardens, low-maintenance landscapes, and mass planting, offering year-round structure, foliage colour, and seasonal flowers while supporting native biodiversity.
