Kakabeak - Red

Clianthus maximus

This lovely shrub is actually an endangered plant in the wild. Its attractive flowers (which resemble the beak of the Kaka parrot) and edible seedpods were once used by Maori for gifting and trading. It produces long, trailing stems that form new plants when they come into contact with soil. It flowers in late spring, summer.

Plant size: PB2 bag
