One of New Zealand's iconic native species would have to be the Kowhai tree (pronounced ko - fai). I say iconic as a lot of people think it is NZ's national flower, but we don't actually have a national flower.
The blooms always appear in spring, often before the leaves emerge, yellow & cheerful. It is nice to see one this close to home when I am more used to seeing them outside of the city proper in this part of the country.

Beautiful photos Deb - how's the partner? Keeping well and healing I do hope. The flowers are stunning - take a close-up of those blooms, they look spectacular. And made a blooming bead too.
Great photos, Deb!
