We love creating art you can wear, the Cabbage Tree tee-shirt is just that, not over the top just subtle, which is the Kiwi way.
Cabbage Tree Cordyline australis, known as the cabbage tree, tī kōuka or cabbage-palm, is a tree native to New Zealand.
It grows up to 20 metres with a stout trunk and sword-like leaves, which are clustered at the tips of the branches and can be up to 1 metre. With its tall, straight trunk and dense, rounded heads, it is a characteristic feature of the New Zealand landscape. Its fruit is a favourite food source for the Wood Pidgeon (kereru) and other native birds. It’s common over a wide range of the country from the far north to the south. It’s found in a broad range of habitats, including forest margins, river banks and open places, and is abundant near swamps. The largest known tree with a single trunk is growing at Pakawau, Golden Bay. It is estimated to be 400 or 500 years old, and stands 17m tall with a circumference of 9m at the base.
Known to Māori as tī kōuka, the tree was used as a food, particularly in the South Island, where it was cultivated in areas where other crops would not grow. It provided durable fibres, anchor ropes, fishing lines, baskets, waterproof rain capes and cloaks, and sandals. Hardy and fast growing, it is widely planted in New Zealand gardens, parks and streets.
