Summer planting
Contrary to popular opinion, summer planting is fine as long as adequate water is provided throughout any prolonged dry periods. This allows you to take advantage of increased summer growth.

Coprosma rhamnoides
I think this is Coprosma rhamnoides. A small natural group of them grow in poor dry soil under kanukas on Clifton hillside in Golden Bay. At least this one is a female with wonderful bright deep red berries!
