Metrosideros garden varieties photography

Rata and Pohutukawa cultivar garden plants

	Metrosideros 'Gold Nugget' A slow growing compact cultivar. The golden leaves with their vivid orange edges are stunning. The flowers appear from December and are very similar to the southern rata (Metrosideros umbellata)
	Metrosideros kermadecensis 'Variegata' A variegated form of the Kermadec Pohutukawa, a separate Metrosideros species from New Zealand's Kermadec Islands. Doesn't grow as tall as the normal Pohutukawa, flowering intermittently throughout the year instead of in one big flush at Christmas.
	Metrosideros carminea A climbing vine rata from New Zealand's damp forests. Metrosideros carminea is a species often propagated from cuttings of adult plants, resulting in a non-climbing shrubby form as pictured. It can also be planted as a climbing or trailing plant. Covered in red flowers each spring.
	Metrosideros fulgens 'Gold' Syn. 'Aurata' This rata species is really a climber of native forest. Due to this rata's compact form (reaching only 1m) it's often grown by gardeners. Mimicing its natural habitat, roots must be kept cool.
