Serendipitous supply
When the Monarch Butterfly NZ Trust wanted to give a gift of plants, locally sourced from Rarangi Beach, east of Blenheim, they came to Oratia. Not only could we provide an eco-sourced species, it was also a plant which had since disappeared from the region!

This is the Trust's story.

SPECIES recurva
Height: 1m;  Spread: 1m
Other
Hebe recurva has been reclassified as Hebe albicans but it is so very different that we are maintaining this old name until the situation is clarified. Of course the plant is none the worse for the botanical tug of war and is a neat plant.
