The visitor is the native Kowhai Moth Caterpillar, and it has been known to completely strip a Kowhai tree of all its foliage. Unless the tree is very young, in most cases there is little long-term damage to the tree. Nature is pretty awesome and the tree will soon produce masses of fresh new growth, but it might be a little unsightly for a few weeks.
Sometimes I will give the tree a good shake, and the little critters will just fall off and give the tree a reprieve. You can use neem oil if it’s proving to be a major problem, but don’t worry too much, Kowhai trees and the caterpillars have been living together for many years.
How much do you know about how a tree grows?
