GuyH Posted December 25, 2004 Report Share Posted December 25, 2004 I will be visiting NZ on February - all around the southern island and only it. I have 2 questions: 1. Where can I find an index with pictures of aquatic plants of NZ ? 2. Could someone recommend a place to buy aquatic plants ? Thanks a lot - Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted December 26, 2004 Report Share Posted December 26, 2004 Do you have any specific ones in mind and what quantities? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyH Posted December 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 no specific ones but for the idea i want unique plants of NZ for we have most ordinary species here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Something like the red duckweed type stuff on ponds, maybe? I think that's a native. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyH Posted January 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 anyone ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 Many of the shops do not sell a lot of their plants with names on, just "Bunched plants" etc. Stock comes and goes all the time too so it is a case of being in the right place at the right time. Try this place in Christchurch. It is a great place to visit and staff are helpful http://www.yellow.co.nz/site/thewatergarden/ Another Christchurch shop, where the staff are keen plant enthusiasts, is Organism.
