Growing to a height of 8m these Kōwhai explode in a sea of yellow flowers in late winter early spring and indicate when it is time to plant kūmara. All parts of this plant are extremely poisonous. There are many types of Kōwhai but this is the most common. During flowering it is common to see many Tui feeding from its bell shaped flowers.
