5920ex Punga fern-- tree-sized and beautiful
In our travels through Australia and New Zealand, we visited several different types of rain-forests, and saw some amazing plant life.
This is a Punga Fern. This one stood about 25 feet tall, with multiple trunk-like hardwood roots. It is indigenous to New Zealand.
