Merry Christmas to all our loved ones from Ann and Rin Middle Earth. The NZ Christmas Tree, also known as the pohutukawa, is a myrtle, Metsiderosis excelsa, adapted to volcanic rock and wind-swept coastal regions. It is a delight to behold these December giants arcing over the volcanic coast or on hillsides near Rivendell.

Ann and Robert-We had one of the biggest 24 hour snow total storms in recording history here in the valley-in Centerville we have about 26 inches in our front yard!! So that beautiful red myrtle looks so inviting. Fran
