Answer 2

We have no set type of National tree......though Christmas time we have a tree called the Pohutakawa which breaks out in an amazing array of red flowers that looks like a Christmas tree..........thus is often called The New Zealand Christmas Tree. There is a large array of trees that are unique to New Zealand but it is a fern that we call our national plant (as opposed to a tree) and only one imparticular type which is from the Ponga fern called Silver Fern.
