Kānuka (Kunzea ericoides)


Kānuka can be distinguished from Mānuka by its softer leaves, and the way its white flowers grow in a more clustered way. Kānuka also has a tendency to grow into a larger tree than Mānuka. In general I would describe the aroma of its foliage as more harshly medicinal than Mānuka's.
