PLANT PROFILE

Casuarina glauca 'Cousin It' is a unique, low-growing Australian native groundcover with dense, trailing green foliage that creates a dramatic weeping effect. Its unusual form makes it ideal for spilling over retaining walls, softening hard edges, covering embankments, or as a sculptural element in modern and native gardens.

Tough and low maintenance, ‘Cousin It’ thrives in full sun to part shade and tolerates a wide range of soils, including poor and sandy types. It is highly drought and salt tolerant once established, making it suitable for coastal and urban environments. Its dense mat-like growth also helps with erosion control on sloped areas.

Mature Width: 2–4 m

  1. Choose a sunny or partly shaded site with well-drained soil.

  3. Add compost or native mix to improve soil structure.
  4. Water deeply after planting and mulch around the base.
  5. Space 1–1.5 metres apart for full ground coverage.
