Best Answer

Many many is the short answer. The New Zealand forest is almost all evergreen (there are a couple of exceptions), so any deciduous tree is almost certainly introduced.

Many of the conifers, especially with long needles, are introduced.

Trees commonly regarded as fruiting, such as peach and apple, are not native.

There are many non-native trees in New Zealand, but the most commonly planted, in plantation forests, is Pinus radiata, a.k.a. Monterey Pine from the Monterey Peninsula, in the west of the US, its original home.
