Casuarina Glauca ‘Cousin It’ (Cousin It) is a striking, low-growing Australian native groundcover valued for its soft, cascading foliage and tough landscape performance. Its fine, needle-like green foliage creates a flowing, waterfall effect that looks beautiful spilling over retaining walls, edging pathways, softening rock gardens, or filling large garden beds with texture and movement.

Perfect for low-maintenance landscapes, Casuarina Glauca ‘Cousin It’ is hardy, drought tolerant once established, and well suited to coastal, native, and modern garden designs. Its dense, spreading habit helps suppress weeds and provides excellent year-round visual appeal, making it a smart choice for customers wanting a reliable, attractive groundcover with minimal upkeep.
