Favourite plant vote

Who is getting your vote in this year’s NZPCN favourite plant vote? This year’s vote looks a little different with a smaller candidate selection showcasing our marvelous wetland plants. A significant proportion of our floral diversity is found in wetland and many species are now threatened or at risk of extinction due to 90% of wetlands in Aotearoa New Zealand being destroyed.

Voting is open until midnight the 10th of November. To vote click on your favourite species below and then hit the vote button. Make sure to get friends, whānau, and colleagues onboard to get your plant to the top spot.
