| Podocarpus macrophyllus, a relative of the yew, is also very forgiving, growing to only 15 ft, hardy and good in shade. |
| Typical Southern Hemisphere flora include the conifers Podocarpus and the rainforest emergents Araucaria and Agathis, as well as tree ferns and several species of Eucalyptus. |
| Another uncommon coniferous shrub, also very distinct and more generally useful than the last, is podocarpus alpina. |
