Strong winds don’t have to mean a struggling garden. Our collection of wind-hardy New Zealand native plants is specially selected to thrive in exposed and gusty sites, from coastal bluffs to elevated inland slopes. These resilient trees, shrubs, and groundcovers are naturally adapted to withstand wind, frost, and tough soils, providing structure, shelter, and long-term beauty for your landscape. Perfect for restoration projects, shelterbelts, or low-maintenance gardens, each plant in this collection is designed to survive, thrive, and enhance biodiversity, even in the windiest conditions.
