Clianthus maximus
Oratia Native Plant Nursery is a place a child can happily and constructively get lost in. Here three year old Theo de Lange gets right into plant conservation issues lecturing his dad (the photograph) about ngutu kaka (Clianthus maximus) - a species sadly down to c.153 wild plants in the wild and now one of New Zealand's most threatened species

Thanks to Peter de Lange for sharing this photo!
