The raspberry colour of the native Puriri tree flowers and berries inspired this vivid pink/blue combination.
Our largest native clematis Puawananga has stark white and fragrant flowers that sparkle in the native bush in spring. The Maori name reflects its sacred status Puawananga - the child of twostars of the heavens. Rehua, the father whose appearance was the sign of summer coming. Puanga, the mother: was the food bringer. If her rays twinkled north a plentiful year was in prospect; if towards the south, a lean year of harvest would follow.

We look forward to seeing Puawananga twinkling.
