Gold Splash Mirror Plant

Coprosma repens ‘Taupata Gold’ is easy to care for and requires minimal maintenance. It prefers well-draining soil and can handle a range of soil textures and pH. This shrub prefers full sun in coastal climates and light shade in hotter inland gardens.

After planting your Gold Splash Mirror Plant, water deeply and regularly for several weeks to reduce plant stress and facilitate root development. After roots have become established, reduce frequency and water as needed. Fairly drought tolerant, but the amount of water required is dependent on several environmental factors such as wind, temperature, soil type, and light intensity.

Coprosma 'Taupata Gold' (C. 'Gold Splash') is a low maintenance shrub that may not require pruning or fertilizer. Prune as needed to maintain its shape or size. Mirror Plant grows easily in nutrient-poor soil but if you wish to feed your Coprosma, use a general purpose fertilizer such as G&B Organics All Purpose Fertilizer 4-4-4 before new growth begins in spring.
