Native plant gardeners of Ōtautahi Christchurch and Selwyn area! Can I please harvest harakeke seed pods from your garden? Looking for places that have a high number of large, established harakeke plants so I don't take too many from each plant. Or if you know of wild locations that people wouldn't mind my foraging in!

Early flowering harakeke in Poneke...

My first and second kono woven from Harakeke. The first has dried out, the second was woven today. They are really satisfying to make. #weaving #harakeke #raranga
Been refactoring the Berry House every few days, after tying from the roof, then to stakes have moved to "Y" frames with #Harakeke stalks as the laterals thanks to @community for the pallet timber
The first piece of joy is a #tui unabashedly feasting on the #harakeke, and I've barely made it across the bridge into Mana.
