color, color everywhere

The garden is awakening and I get excited to see all the colors, even on the ground.


Kowhai (ko-fie) is the Maori word for 'yellow' and, thus, what we call the tree.

kowhai and tuis

The kowhai (pronounced KO-fie) is a lovely tree native to New Zealand and 
the name is the Maori word for 'yellow'. 


Native birds love the trees and at Hollards yesterday, we found a
tree full of tuis.
