The United Nursery Podocarpus Maki (Podocarpus macrophyllus ‘Maki’). This premium evergreen shrub is a top choice for homeowners and designers seeking a lush, living privacy screen. Known for its dense, upright, and naturally columnar growth habit, it provides a sophisticated way to create borders, windbreaks, or green walls. Arriving at 18–24 inches tall in a 10-inch plant pot, it’s ready to provide immediate structure to your landscape. Whether you’re aiming for a manicured, formal garden look or a soft, natural boundary, the Podocarpus Maki is the perfect candidate. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is highly adaptable to various soil types. While it can reach 6–10 feet tall, it is incredibly responsive to pruning, allowing you to maintain it as a sleek, narrow hedge for tight urban spaces or a grand, sweeping backdrop for large estates. Don’t let its refined, needle-like foliage fool you—this is a workhorse plant. Once established, the Podocarpus is highly drought-tolerant and remarkably low-maintenance. It is a hardy evergreen suited for USDA Zones 7–11, making it resilient against wind and urban pollution. It stays vibrant and deep green year-round, ensuring your curb appeal remains flawless through every season. Sustainably grown and hand-selected for its thick density, our Podocarpus Maki is a long-term investment in your property’s beauty and value.
