POHUTUKAWA by Jude Miller perfectly captures the essence of real pohutukawa flowers. See a couple more
of Jude's pictures.
Jude's flowers are beautiful, life-like works of art, with each inticrate detail painstakingly replicated from the
original. "I spend days studying a flower," she says. "If possible, I like pulling the plant apart and examining
each bit with a high-focus lens. It's such fun." Read more about Jude Miller.
The pohutukawa tree is native to the coastal regions of the North Island of New Zealand. It is covered in
crimson flowers in the summer time and is also called the New Zealand Christmas Tree. Read more about
the pohutukawa in An Encyclopedia of New Zealand and at Operation Fruit.
See Pohutukawa when you visit New Zealand. Download directions for walks, hikes, and drives that will lead
you to some of the most spectacular pohutukawa (and Rata) trees in the country at Crimson Trails.
The Coromandel Pohutukawa Festival is a summer celebration of New Zealand food, wine, art and music
that takes place every year from the 25th of November until the 11th of December. Read all about it.
"The pohutukawa is a friend to man...For a start, like humans, it likes hanging out on beaches...Lots of long,
low branches hang over the sand. They provide shade and great places to sit, climb and hang beach
towels..." Read this passionate descriptive article at flackmagazine.
Project Crimson was set up to save the pohutukawa from extinction. Read more, and watch one of their
television advertisements, at the Department of Conservation.
