[QUOTE="John B, post: 2047, member: 207"] I would be very wary planting manuka anywhere other than New Zealand. For most of my life it has been regarded as an invasive weed species and it has a huge range of soils and climates that it will grow in from dry hot clay hillsides to peat swamps and from the winterless North of New Zealand right down to fjordland where they measure the rainfall in metres. From coastal areas, right up to the mountains where it snows regularly. It is not highly palatable and is one of the few New Zealand plants that thrive after fires. [/QUOTE]
