In this 60-minute walk we will see a plant that cannot decide whether it is a lily or an asparagus, trees that can be tapped, tree trunks that are not really tree trunks, trees that shared space with the dinosaurs, plants that photosynthesise only at night, and a deadly poisonous plant that yields potent drugs for fighting cancer.Meet at the Cable Car Entrance Lookout, Upland Road, Kelburn.
