Ha, the plants we were planting were Melicytus aff. obovatus (a) (AK 235617; Cook Strait) an as yet undescribed Melicytus endemic to the Cook Strait area. This small population was first noted by Aston in 1907 and a second even smaller population around 50 metres further along the cliffs was discovered by Peter de Lange in 1990. Otari-Wilton's Bush nursery grew these for me and the staff and I and the Manager of Parks at Porirua City Council, Olivia Dovey also helped plant. The site is very close to the natural populations. I hope the birds and lizards will distribute the seed into more areas on the cliffs. The site is part of a Key Native Ecosystem funded by Greater Wellington Regional Council.
