Occurrence, site conditions in culture and endangerment
Olearia paniculata is native to New Zealand on the North Island south of the 38th parallel and on the South Island south to Greymouth and Oamaru from the coastal lowlands to the subalpine zone.
Olearia paniculata thrives in moist, light to heavy, well-drained soils . It tolerates acidic, neutral and basic soils and can also grow on highly alkaline soil. However, it thrives best on light clay or peaty soil. It does not thrive in the shade. Olearia paniculata is very tolerant of locations close to the sea and can be used here as a windbreaker. It is only tolerant of light frost. In the UK , they have proven frost hardy in milder areas dominated by the maritime climate.
Olearia paniculata is classified as "not threatened".
Propagation in culture
Propagation takes place in moderate latitudes by sowing in a greenhouse in a slightly moist substrate or by propagating cuttings.
