About Our Project
Introduction
Overview
We share accurate, accessible knowledge about Aotearoa New Zealand's native flora. Our goal is to connect cultural context, practical growing guidance, and conservation insight so more people can understand, value, and grow native plants.
What We Offer
Comprehensive Plant Database
Our database includes hundreds of species with identification tips, growing conditions, and cultivation advice. We recognise the importance of Māori names and Mātauranga where appropriate, and we focus on resilient, biodiversity-friendly gardening.
Editorial Review
Sources and Corrections
Plant profiles are maintained as a public reference for gardeners, conservation-minded readers, and people learning about Aotearoa New Zealand flora. We review pages for botanical accuracy, Māori plant names, conservation context, and image attribution. Corrections can be sent through the contact page.
