This New Zealand Zone accommodates a huge variety of both native and introduced plants all adapted to the harsh mountain environment, dry deserts, searing sun, poor soils lashing winds, and weeks covered in snow.

We can explore how these have adapted to the conditions and work together to survive with insects, & birds. We also encounter the dangers for the natives as spreading exotic flora and fauna threaten their existence.
