Description
Sophora tetraptera is an elegant, evergreen tree native to New Zealand, noted for its larger leaves and flowers compared to Sophora microphylla. Its slender, upright form lends a light, airy quality to the landscape, making it a graceful addition to gardens and natural plantings.
From mid-spring to early summer, Sophora tetraptera produces a profusion of golden-yellow flowers that are highly attractive to nectar-seeking birds, enhancing biodiversity and seasonal interest. It thrives best in a position with sun or partial shade, and prefers soil that is not overly dry.
Particularly striking when planted near or overlooking water, this species brings a natural elegance and vibrant colour to a range of settings, combining ornamental beauty with ecological value
