Cabbage Trees Art Print by Diana Adams.
Cabbage Trees are a common sight throughout New Zealand. They can even be seen on Queen Street - the main street in Auckland City. The young cabbage tree has a single, grey coloured trunk and later adds more trunks and branches with leaves clustered in bunches at the tips. Growing 12-20 metres. the long narrow leaves may be up to a metre long and the trunk 1.5 metres in diameter. The bark is thick and tough, like cork and the tree has a strong tap-root. In November to January hundreds of strongly scented white flowers form in clusters, attracting bees. The flowers form bluish-white berries which birds like to eat.
Finishing:
1. Loose (unframed) print
Tip: If mounting picture with frame, check with framer for any bubbling.
Diana Adams' artwork is inspired by the rugged beauty of New Zealand. She paints with acrylic on stretched canvas in her home studio on Banks Peninsula, New Zealand.
