Wide Wednesday . . . Mono Wilderness
This afternoon on a walk up the hill I liked this group of cabbage trees. The light was flat and it's not very wide looking but you get days like that.
Cabbage tree/tī kōuka
The cabbage tree is one of the most distinctive trees in the New Zealand landscape, especially on farms. They grow all over the country, but prefer wet, open areas like swamps.
Growing 12 to 20 metres high, cabbage trees (Cordyline australis) have long narrow leaves that may be up to a metre long. It has lovely scented flowers in early summer, which turn into bluish-white berries that birds love to eat.
