Please help me to identify this plant. Thanks Peter
A species of lancewood - probably fierce lancewood http://www.nzpcn.org.nz/flora_details.aspx?ID=307
Thanks Astrid. It was labelled as Pseudopanax lessonii but I did not recognise this.
It could well be a hybrid - Pseudopanax lessonii hybridizes with other Pseupopanax plants like lancewoods.
I see some trifoliate leaves there, so it is most likely a P. lessonii x P. crassifolius hybrid.
Thanks Bill
