Summary
A list of vascular plants growing within an area of approximately 5km radius from Kawerua is presented. Both native and adventive species are included and are placed in 11 communities or habitats which are described briefly. The list names 293 taxa; 62 of these are exotic species of which 28 grow as weeds in other parts of New Zealand. Man has probably deliberately planted 35 species in several small once-settled areas and in forestry plantations.
