Sophora, or Kowhai

            The genus of Sophora, or Kowhai as we Kiwis (New Zealanders) know it, comprises around fifty species of trees and shrubs found in the tropics and the more temperate parts of North and South America, Asia, Australia and here in New Zealand.

Regarded by most New Zealanders as our national flower, Kowhai are among the most beautiful of our flowering trees and may indeed be included among the most beautiful trees in the world.
