These photos are all New Zealand native plants that we came across on a very beautiful autumn day, 25 March. Each photo is selected for having a plant feature that’s white. We started off in Dunedin Botanic Garden, drove to Ocean View/Brighton Beach and stopped at Milton on our way home. The first photo’s by Nigel and I cropped it hard to make the tiny fruit as big as possible. Other photos were taken by me.

Climbing up from Brighton Beach I found them right by the path.

This is an interesting collection, Liz, featuring white. It’s interesting that you’d find that much white in the autumn, I’d associate that more with spring, although I’m not sure why. That fuzz is rather intriguing, too…almost like a fungus.

Even I was surprised to find this much ‘white’ in my photos hence the post. Rock daisies are really wonderful plants.. another type has pretty beige-coloured fuzz. The young leaves, and the undersides of any leaves, are lovely and furry!
