Why is speargrass so sharp? Why does the parapara have such sticky seeds (hint, little birds beware). Join Te Papa science researcher and evolutionary biologist Lara Shepherd on walk exploring Ōtari’s plant collection, where she’ll reveal all sorts of fascinating facts about our native species.
Meet at Tāne Whakapiripiri, Ōtari Visitor Centre. It is easy walking and family groups are welcome. We ask that dogs stay at home for everyones comfort and a smooth tour experience.
