Hi. I spotted a few of these in South Westland bush along the Jackson River December 16. I've not seen it before. There seemed to be very few weeds or exotics in the area. Also... lovely to see a couple of groves of Olearia hectorii along the Matukituki too.

Hi Graeme, While I've never seen that one it looks like a Bulbinella which would make it Bulbinella modesta (Buller to Martins Bay), cool.

Thanks very much! You cats are very helpful. We had four days of cloudless windless weather from Wanaka to Haast to the Cascade Valley. That's a bit of luck. Pennantia corymbosa in full flower everywhere. A voluptuous Winika pictured

Kiaora chaps. Graeme is correct Graeme - Bulbinella modesta - and an exceptionally robust specimen too

Cheers!
