"WWF Raw - Pied Stilt edition. All carefully choreographed - fake body slams, no pied stilts were harmed. They both turned around and chased a grey teal after this encounter, who was a bit indignant about being seen off when he wasn't doing anything - the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Pied Stilt/poaka (Himantopus himantopus), Pauatahanui."

Dark green thick fleshy leaves on trailing stems. Clusters of little oub and white starrey flowers that make up a ball shaped flower the size of a tennis-ball. Long lasting flowers.
They grow well where they get light but not direct sunlight.
I've found they do better indoors. Easy to maintain and will tolerate dry if you forget to water them.
The first 3 pictures are of the parent plant in flower. The last pic with the young plant on the trellis is the plant for sale. It has a new leaf at the top.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Hunkered down in a 6-metre by 5-metre tin shed near the burnt-out shell of their house, Bianca Hawea, her two teenage sons and her partner, are trying to pull their lives back together.
The saving grace is the stream of support arriving at the Clyde St property, with friends, family and strangers bringing much needed supplies.
