Flower Extracts Benefits

Manuka is a small tree which grows abundantly throughout New Zealand. Typical properties include: Antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-acne, anti-wrinkle, astringent and healing.

Pohutukawa is also known as the New Zealand Christmas Tree due to the abundance of striking red flowers that bloom in December. The pohutukawa flower is one of the more easily recognised native New Zealand flowers. It has astringent and antiseptic qualities. Harakeke is one of the most versatile native New Zealand plants. Not only are the leaves used traditionally by Maori for weaving mats, clothing, bags and bowls, but different parts of the plant were used as an external treatment for wounds, burns, toothache and eczema.

Harakeke typically contains effective antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-acne, skin softening and healing properties.

Kowhai, the drooping bright yellow flower of the Kowhai tree, is also one of the more easily recognised native flowers in New Zealand. Not only popular with the native Tui, all parts of the Kowhai tree can be used in traditional medicine - from treating cuts, bruises and skin infections.

Puriri is one of the few native trees in New Zealand with large colourful flowers - commonly a rose pink compared to the white or green flowers which are more common on native trees. The flower itself is similar in appearance to the snapdragon flowers. Used in traditional medicine to treat ulcers, sore throats and for bathing sore muscles, backache and sprains. Properties include: Antimicrobial and acts as a relaxant.
