Summary

Alseuosmia quercifolia, commonly known as oak-leaved toropapa, toropapa, and karapapa (Māori), is a species of plant in the family Alseuosmiaceae. It grows as a shrub, reaching a height of 2.5 m, and has variably shaped glossy green leaves. Flowering begins in spring (in the southern hemisphere), producing fragrant pink flowers which become red berries in Autumn. Endemic to New Zealand, it is found only in the upper half of the North Island - predominately in the Waikato region. Currently classified as "Not threatened" by the NZTCS, it was first described in 1839 by Allan Cunningham, before being demoted to a hybrid by Rhys Gardner in 1978 and then reinstated by M. F. Merrett and B. D. Clarkson in 2000....read more on Wikipedia.
