Duranta erecta Sheenas Gold (syn. repens)
Duranta erecta Sheenas Gold is a bright, fast-growing shrub valued for its luminous golden-chartreuse foliage. A versatile hedging and accent plant that provides year-round colour contrast in garden borders, mixed plantings, and topiary applications.
Specifier notes. Specified across commercial hedging projects from boundary screens to formal clipped lines. Holds its own as a standalone feature where form and presence matter more than mass.
Site & establishment. Coloured foliage adds tonal contrast in mixed planting.
How we supply it. Fast establishment makes it a strong choice on projects where a hedge needs to read as a hedge inside 12–18 months. Tolerates topiary work — responds to repeated tip pruning without dieback.
Cape Nursery production. All Cape Nursery stock is grown 7 km from the Pacific Ocean, hardened to coastal sun and wind from propagation rather than acclimatised at point of sale. Specimens leave us biosecurity-traceable, and root-checked. National delivery is available; collection from Ewingsdale is welcomed Mon–Thu 7:30am–4pm.
