description_en: Genus of 3 species of evergreen shrubs occurring in forests and rocky areas in New Zealand. They have alternate, linear to obovate leaves. Star-shaped, 5-petalled yellow flowers, 0.9-1.5cm (3/8-1/2in) across, are produced singly from the leaf axils or in short, terminal racemes, panicles, or clusters, followed by colourful autumn fruits. In frost-prone areas, grow Corokia species and cultivars as specimen plants in a sheltered shrub border or against a wall. In warmer coastal regions, they will tolerate an open site or partial shade, and may be used for hedging.
