Selliera rotundifolia
Height: 0.03m;  Spread: 1m
Ground Cover
A brilliant lawn-like ground cover that never needs mowing. A hardy coastal plant that loves salt spray and stays weed free with regular dosing. A species from Taranaki with smaller round leaves than the more common form Selliera radicans.

Pretty sure I've id'd this correctly - found on the banks of a small stream at Cape Egmont. Looks just like the ones I have at home (in Auckland)!
Growing very happily either side of the banks of this small stream at Cape Egmont.
