Apodasmia similis, Oioi

Mature size: 1m x 1m Soil: Wet/Moist, some dry periods ok Sunlight: Full sun    Apodasmia similis, commonly known as Oioi, is a distinctive New Zealand native rush found naturally in coastal wetlands, estuaries, salt marshes, and alongside waterways throughout the country.

Its dense root system helps stabilise soil while providing valuable habitat for native insects and birds. In residential gardens, it creates a striking feature when planted in groups around ponds, rain gardens, or mixed native borders, where its elegant foliage provides year-round colour and texture with minimal maintenance.
