  1. Ixerba brexioides flowering and pollination

  2. 29/06/2011 1:58:11 p.m. Rachel Thomson

    Hi there,
    I'm currently doing a thesis investigating the pollination mechanism of Ixerba brexioides (tawari). If anyone has any information to offer about flowering times, locations, pollination observations, or other general information about this magnificent tree I would love to hear from you!
    Thanks,
    Rachel Thomson

    Hi Rachel,
    I remember seeing it flowering prolifically along the Waikareiti track, Urewera National Park in the second week of January. I think it was 2003.
    Cheers

    Hi Rachel

    From memory Ixerba tends to flower from about mid December through to mid January - but, as with all things it varies and I have seen it flowering in November and February.

    Cheerio

    Saw trees in full bud last week in forest near Te Wera, Matawai if that helps. Such a beautiful thing I agree.
