Pseudopanax crassifolius (Lancewood)
Lancewood, Horoeka
Pseudopanax crassifolius, commonly known as Lancewood or Horoeka, is a distinctive New Zealand native tree renowned for its dramatic transformation from juvenile to adult form. In its youth, it showcases long, narrow, downward-pointing leaves with toothed margins, which over time mature into shorter, broader leaves forming a rounded canopy. This evolutionary adaptation is believed to have deterred browsing by Moa birds.
