Prumnopitys taxifolia (Matai) juvenile tree growing as a specimen in a park.

Prumnopitys taxifolia (Matai)

Prumnopitys taxifolia, commonly known as Matai or Black Pine, is a stately, NZ native tree with quite different juvenile and adult forms. The juvenile form has orange branches held with a tangled appearance and silver-coloured foliage. The tree eventually develops dense, yellow-green foliage and distinctive hammer mark patterns on the trunk. It typically grows to 10 m tall and 6 m wide in 10 years, but will eventually reach 25-30 m tall after several more decades. The different forms make Prumnopitys taxifolia both an unusual and attractive plant that is ideal for including in a mixed planting in a large garden or for using in a native revegetation project.

Native Tree Planting Advice

Selecting and planting native trees involves more than just choosing a species. Consider site conditions such as soil, sunlight, wind exposure, and the presence of existing vegetation. Many natives, like Prumnopitys taxifolia (Matai) and Metrosideros robusta, thrive with minimal intervention once established. For best results, plant in autumn or early winter, mulch well, and provide initial weed control as your new trees get established.
