A Kiwi’s Take on New Zealand’s Funkiest Native Plants 🌿🇳🇿

Описание: From the mighty Kauri to the Cabbage tree — explore a few of the funkiest New Zealand’s native plants through Kiwi eyes.

We chat with Lena Robinson (of Flora.lishus), who brings a truly unique perspective on New Zealand’s native flora. Lena is half Māori, grew up on a plant nursery run by her horticultural parents, and has a lifelong connection to the landscapes of Aotearoa.

Lena shares her insights on three iconic New Zealand plants/ genuses:
1️⃣ Pseudopanax – a striking, architectural shrub with deep cultural roots.
2️⃣ Kauri Tree – one of the world’s most ancient and majestic trees.
3️⃣ Cordyline australis (Cabbage Tree) – a plant that’s both practical and symbolic in Kiwi culture.

If you’re fascinated by native plants, garden design, and the cultural stories behind plants, you’ll love this conversation.

With thanks to Tom Hart Dyke for allowing us to film in the New Zealand and Australis sections of The World Garden at Lullingstone Castle 🙏 *
