New Zealand Plants

11009-19316 Coastal kowhai (Sophora chathamica) flowers. The most common kowhai in Nortland is this species. It occurs in mainly coastal and lowland sites, such as along the Tutukaka coast, also around Auckland and on most northern offshore islands. Also through to Wellington and the Chatham Islands, but this range south is not considered natural, and is instead the result of deliberate Maori plantings. Te Atatu *
