Tui birds are particularly fond of flax (Phormium spp.) because it provides a rich source of nectar from its flowers, which is a primary food source for them. The tubular shape of the flax flowers suits the tui's long beak, allowing them to access the nectar easily. Additionally, flax plants offer a habitat for nesting and protection from predators. This combination of food and shelter makes flax an important resource for tui in their natural environment.
