72 NATIVE PLANTS in a FENDALTON GARDEN Usually
72 NATIVE PLANTS IN A FENDALTON GARDEN DEREK COOK AND WARWICK HARRIS Usually private gardens come and go with little record of their existence. Often their duration is short and determined by the period of care the gardener who created them is able to give to them. Through creating and caring for a garden, a gardener inevitably acquires knowledge of the plants in the garden and their requirements for adequate growth. While most gardeners are happy to show and talk to people about their gardens, few leave a written record of the knowledge they acquired about the plants they grew or attempted to grow in their garden. This is a record of plants of the garden of Derek Cook created at 27 Glandovey Road, Fendalton Christchurch. As described by Mary Lovell-Smith (2001) in The Press, it is a garden that was developed as a consequence of a passionate interest in native plants. The garden is a plant collector's garden. Consequently its form is determined by the objective to grow as many different species of native plant as possible, rather than a concern for decorative appearance. Through this approach information has been obtained about which native plants are most likely to succeed in a Christchurch garden. The first list (Table 1) prepared by Derek Cook recorded plants present in the garden in August 2000 that had survived "Christchurch frosts and dry nor'westers for 5-10 years." A list made in September 2001 recording acquisitions made since the list of August 2000 is given at the end of Table 1.

Branchlets are slender, flexible and often droop- ing, being four sided and usually fawn brown. Leaves are linear, 10-40 mm long and 1 mm wide and either opposite or in opposite clusters that give trees a wiry and wispy appearance. Flowers con- sist of small, creamy-col- oured, scented ray florets and occur in November to January. Similar Plants The long narrow leaves of Olearia lineata make it distinctly different from other rare Olearia species, but at a dis- tance it does have a similar appearance to Olearia bullata.

Elucidation of Olearia species related to O. paucidentata (Astereaceae: Astereae). Nuytsia 18(1): 83–95 (2008). A group of south-west Western Australian endemic species related to Olearia paucidentata (Steetz) F.Muell. ex Benth. are distinguished, and an identification key and comprehensive descriptions of each are presented. O. paucidentata is lectotypified. Eurybia lehmanniana Steetz is re-instated at specific rank asOlearia lehmanniana (Steetz) Lander. Maps and notes on typification, distributions, etc. of each species are provided. Introduction Prior to the preparation of an account of Olearia Moench (Asteraceae) in the ongoing Flora of Australia series it is necessary to clarify the limits of a number of Western Australian species described by Joachim Steetz (1845) which are easily confused and have been difficult to distinguish.

This work is the result of studies carried out during the last twelve years. The field-studies have been made partly in various parts of Scandinavia (Sweden and Norway), partly during a year's work in New Zealand and .Australia in 1926-1927 as well as during shorter visits to various parts of Central and Western Europe, North America, and Java. The material collected in the field has been worked up in the Plant-Biological Institution of Upsala Uni versity. The rich life-form collections of this institution have also been utilized as much as possible.

Biodiv Report-11Pt.Indd
SOUTH MARLBOROUGH - Significant Natural Areas Project BLENHEIM ECOLOGICAL DISTRICT MAP 6 - BLENHEIM ECOLOGICAL DISTRICT OVERVIEW The Blenheim Ecological District encompasses the entire lower Wairau River plain, downstream from the Waihopai River. It is bounded to the north by the Richmond Range and to the south by the Wither Hills. Its eastern boundary is the Cloudy Bay coastline. It spans a very small altitudinal gradient, from sea level to 251m, although the river plain only reaches to 75m. A number of small foothills protrude into the ecological district from the Wither Hills to the south. The river plain includes the lower reaches of a number of tributary rivers that flow in from the south: the Waihopai River; and the Omaka, Taylor, and Fairhall Rivers that become the Opawa River. The Tuamarina, Waikakaho and Kaituna Rivers all flow in from the north, but their courses quickly join the Wairau River. The Wairau plain is composed substantially of post-glacial alluvium, with large areas of Quaternary glacial outwash gravels to the south. The small foothills of the Wither Hills reach into the south of the District. These are of Tertiary mudstones and sandstones grading into basal conglomerates. The Wairau boulder barrier and lagoon is considered to be of national importance as one of the best examples in New Zealand of a river mouth lagoon, bird’s foot delta and narrow boulder barrier. A series of post-glacial beach ridges extending inland about 4 km at Rarangi date earthquake uplift events, and the Waihopai River fault terraces are a good example of the results of faulting and deformation occurring on the Wairau Fault.
