Coprosma robusta (Rubiaceae) not in Student's Flora

Coprosma robusta (Karamu) is an uncommon, large woody weed with large, quite thick, opposite leaves with pointed apices. It differs from Mirror Bush (C. repens) in the leaf shape and texture (Mirror Bush has thicker, very glossy leaves that are rounded with a blunt apex). It is also similar to the native species C. hirtella, but differs in having larger leaves, with less pointed tips.
