Not on this trip but we have since. The Hunua shrub epiphytes in order from VERY abundant to uncommon are: Griselinia lucida, Brachyglottis kirkii, Pittosporum cornifolium, Pittosporum kirkii.

Excellent work. I will be joining the workshop this April, and hope to learn so much more. I hope there is a place for me.

I work with NZ's native vascular epiphytes at the University of Waikato. I completed an MSc on epiphyte ecology and the shrub epiphyte Griselinia lucida and have recently published the Field Guide to NZ's Epiphytes, Vines & Mistletoes.

For me, the highlights of epiphyte research are the many unknowns, the amazing way that these plants survive in the canopy, and of course tree climbing!
