Growth Expectations Griselinia grows 50–60 cm per year, forming a solid screen within a few seasons. ✂️ Maintenance Tips Prune once a year in late spring or early summer to maintain shape and encourage bushiness. Use canes and string to guide your trimming height. Griselinia littoralis is a resilient, attractive hedge that rewards good planting with fast growth and year-round greenery.
