Amenity Plants
These are plants will look good in an urban environment or garden. Commonly used in commercial landscaping for their aesthetics and hardiness but also suitable as revegetation plants include Kōwhai, Kānuka, Kōhuhu and Tārata. Really the choice is a personal one, however a Kānuka tree as a specimen tree can make quite a statement on the landscape (as can a Tī Kōuka or Kōwhai).
