Clematis paniculata
Clematis paniculata, known as Puawhananga, is a stunning native New Zealand climber celebrated for its masses of fragrant white flowers in spring and early summer. This deciduous vine grows rapidly and is ideal for covering fences, trellises, or scrambling through trees. It thrives in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil and cool roots. As a symbol of spring in Māori tradition, Puawhananga brings beauty, fragrance, and cultural significance to both native and ornamental gardens.

Muehlenbeckia complexa (Pohuehue)
Muehlenbeckia complexa (Pohuehue) is a vigorous, hardy NZ native climber or groundcover. It features wiry, twining stems and small, glossy green leaves that create dense coverage. Growing up to 4 m wide and 2 m high, it’s perfect for fences, banks, or walls. Pohuehue tolerates wind, salt spray, and dry conditions once established. Small, white flowers are followed by black berries, attracting birds and making it an excellent choice for both erosion control and biodiversity.
