Pua o te Rēinga – Dactylanthus Taylorii – Woodrose Whakakāinga Anō - Translocation
Who can name a plant that has no leaves, no stems, and, no roots? Produces 1 litre of nectar a week, is pollinated by bats, grows underground, produces a wooden rose - Pua o te Rēinga is a very special plant, once widespread across the country, but now only survives in controlled managed areas. It is the only parasitic plant of Aotearoa. The support of The Department of Conservation (DOC) is allowing for a collaborative multi-Iwi approach to kaitiaki the future of this plant throughout the greater Wellington region.
ZEALANDIA Te Māra a Tāne, Wellington City Council, and, Ōtari Botanic Garden are collaborating on a project to translocate Aotearoa/New Zealand’s only parasitic plant whose conservation status is serious decline to Wellington where it was once abundant. ZEALANDIA have been kindly granted a permit to receive a koha of Pua o te Rēinga seeds from the Iwi of Pureora Forest Park and will replant them in ZEALANDIA Te Māra a Tāne and Ōtari Botanic Gardens.
The Department of Conservation have given us pūtea for Iwi to participate in this opportunity. We would like to include representatives from all Iwi of the greater Wellington region to extend the experience, and, kaitiakitanga of this plant.
If you found this kōrero interesting then take note - ZEALANDIA have invited Ātiawa ki Whakarongotai to send along one or two interested registered members, to join this unique learning and engagement opportunity with leading experts of this toanga, engaging with the Iwi of Pureora Forest Park, learning about the maramataka and mātaurangi Māori of this species.
