Serendipitous supply
When the Monarch Butterfly NZ Trust wanted to give a gift of plants, locally sourced from Rarangi Beach, east of Blenheim, they came to Oratia. Not only could we provide an eco-sourced species, it was also a plant which had since disappeared from the region!

This is the Trust's story.

Coprosma propinqua
Ileostylus micranthus is a mistletoe commonly found on totara trees and sometimes on Coprosma grandifolia and Coprosma propinqua. Its bright orange fruit are very attractive to birds.
