Which Native Forest Plant? by Andrew Crowe is a best-selling classic that provides comprehensive information on the identification, ecology, and uses of New Zealand's native plants.

Use Andrew Crowe's unique leaf key to confidently identify the shrubs, climbers, perching plants, and groundcovers of New Zealand's native forest. Colour photographs of leaves and associated creatures, graphics depicting plant shape and height, plant distribution maps, and ID checklists clearly listing distinguishing features serve as helpful tools to identify New Zealand's native forest plants.

Discover the known uses of each plant, ranging from snow sandals, hair ties, combs, whistles, baskets, and dyes, to food, medicine, and timber. Furthermore, learn how to cultivate each plant in your own garden.
