Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Coastal She Oak, Casuarina equisetifolia
Casuarina equisetifolia is a proven performer in the most demanding coastal conditions, salt-laden winds, sandy soils, and intense exposure present no obstacle. Planted at advanced size, it delivers structure and a distinctive, fine-textured canopy that few trees can match in harsh maritime environments.
Why Coastal She Oak
Coastal Hardiness: exceptional tolerance of salt wind, spray, and exposed foreshore conditions.
Texture and Movement: soft, drooping branchlets create a distinctive silhouette with quiet, windswept character suited to prestige coastal properties.
Rapid Establishment: vigorous root system anchors quickly in sandy and low-nutrient soils where many species fail.
Low Maintenance: once established, demands little intervention; highly drought-tolerant and self-sufficient.
Screening Capability: dense growth habit provides effective privacy and wind mitigation at scale.
Ideal Applications
Coastal Screening: first-line windbreak and privacy solution for beachfront and foreshore projects.
Dune Stabilisation: deep, fibrous root system secures sandy substrates and rehabilitates erosion-prone sites.
Avenue Planting: bold, repeated form creates strong structural lines in large coastal landscapes and resort developments.
Boundary Definition: effective perimeter planting for coastal residential and commercial properties.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (screening/hedge): 3 to 5m
Spacing (feature/avenue): 8 to 12m
Best Planting Season: Spring to early summer
Soil & Drainage: Tolerates a wide range of soils including poor sandy and saline soils; requires good drainage; highly drought and salt tolerant once established
Establishment Care: Water deeply two to three times per week for the first 8 to 12 weeks until established, then reduce to occasional deep watering during prolonged dry periods. Mulch around the base to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds, keeping mulch clear of the trunk.
