Mānuka
Description
Mānuka (Leptospermum scoparium) is a restoration essential, famous for its resilience, fast growth, and bee-attracting blooms. A pioneer species that thrives in poor soils, it kickstarts regeneration and sets the stage for a thriving ecosystem.
Restoration Trailblazer: Grows fast in tough conditions, sheltering slower-growing natives.
Pollinator Hotspot: Its white or pink flowers are a magnet for bees, boosting biodiversity.
Soil Stabilizer: Strong roots help control erosion, making it great for hillsides and degraded land.
How to Use It
- Plant on exposed sites, poor soils, or erosion-prone land, or anywhere!
- Plant in abundance with kānuka, wineberry, and karamu for a powerhouse pioneer mix.
- Low-maintenance—we recommend releasing in the Spring depending on weed growth, then let it flourish.
Mānuka is a rugged, resilient native that lays the foundation for forest restoration - it should be a part of EVERY regeneration project! Plant it and let nature take over!
