Description

Dominant tree in regenerating indigenous forest. Images show tree canopy, trunk and bark, seedlings, distinctive glabrescent linear foliage (note bright yellow-green colour typical of this species) and branchlets - note these appear glabrous (they do have sparse, fine, patent (divergent) hairs - but these can usually only be seen using a 20× magnification hand lens when in the field). Note also the flowers which are very shortly pedicellate.

These are features of Kunzea ericoides s.s. a northern South Island endemic that was originally described from specimens collected by the French from Astrolabe Passage in what is now Abel Tasman National Park in the 1820s (probably 1826).
