The largest recorded girth for this species outside of its natural range. NZNTT 2010
An impressive tree in its natural form with branches to the ground. There are a number of other large exotic trees on this farm that may have come from the old Tapawera Forestry nursey site nearby. Livestock activity under the tree has exposed the large surface roots. The tree is listed on the Tasman Resource Management Plan schedule as PT838 (Cadwallader, B.G., 2010). Allan Herbarium voucher specimen CHR 610025 - ID 2010/0079 |
