The name Pohutukawa comes from one of our unique native trees. The Pohutukawa tree is an evergreen beauty that blooms its bright red flowers in December. For this reason, we also refer to it as the New Zealand Christmas Tree. It is associated with the Maori legend Tawhaki - symbolizing the strength & beauty of New Zealand’s landscape.
