Kumarahou grows up to four meters in height, and flowers in September, with yellow blossoms.
It is also known as "gum-diggers soap" and "golden tainui".
It is said to have gentle cleansing and anti-microbial properties.
The leaves and flowers of the NZ native Kumerahou plant have been used in Rongoa (traditional Maori medicine) as a poultice or to gently bathe abrasions, sores and rashes.
