A unique NZ native which is critically endangered in the wild. A great source of nectar for bellbird and tui.

Soak seed in tepid water overnight. Sow indoors anytime into quality seed raising mix and cover to a depth of 1cm. Cover with plastic to conserve moisture. Remove plastic often to allow ventilation. Keep moist throughout germination period. Protect seedlings from slugs. Grows in a spreading, climbing habit to around 1m. Responds well to a good pruning after flowering.
