Coprosma macrocarpa, also known as large-seeded coprosma and coastal karamu, is a shrub native to New Zealand. It has large thick leaves and large bright red/orange berries.[2] Macrocarpa means "large fruit".
There are two subspecies. C. macrocarpa subsp. macrocarpa ranges from a shrub to a 10-metre-tall (33 ft) tree. It occurs naturally on the Three Kings Islands.[2] It is naturalised in the northern part of the North Island and around Wellington.[3] C. macrocarpa subsp. minor is mostly a shrub up to 4 metres. It occurs in coastal areas from North Cape to East Cape and some offshore islands.[2]
