The pohutukawa tree is part of the Christmas tradition of New Zealand. The pohutukawa is native to New Zealand, and is a natural Christmas tree, often being used to decorate homes and businesses at Christmas, When it flowers around Christmas time, it does so with a massive display of bright red flowers. The first reference to it as a "Christmas tree" was recorded in 1867 when Austrian geologist Ferdinand von Hochstetter observed that settlers called it that.
