Podocarpus 'Country Park Fire' is an interesting conifer with an irregular and explosive shape. The pretty creamy salmon pink new growth turns a rusty red colour in winter. It is ideal for borders and rock gardens. This is a female conifer and will produce fruits with fleshy red receptacles if a suitable pollinator is near (e.g. Podocarpus 'Flame')
