Kanuka Influence

FOREST

With its hard exterior and tall trunk the Kanuka tree has the expetional ability to protect and give life to flora and fauna around it within a certain radius depending on age and size

REGENERATION

The ongoing cycle of the Kanuka’s life begins with protecting those around it until it is outgrown. The canopy then breaks down providing seedlings or saplings of other species to come through.

The kanuka’s ability to affect plants around it is shown in the diagram above In a collection of Kanuka’s in one are a ripple effect is created and the effected area’s overlap

The tree acts as a resource for plants around it making new life possible. Aerial Representation

This ripple effect creates different density effectivness in certain areas thus causing more growth and higher tolerance to the elements
