Kanono
Coprosma grandifolia
Coprosma autumnalis or C. grandifolia according to earlier Colenso authority, (In Māori: kanono, raurēkau or kawariki) is a native forest shrub of New Zealand. It is widespread in both the North Island and in the northern South Island, and has the largest leaves of any New Zealand coprosma. The name kawariki was applied after its leaves resembling those of the tropical Terminalia catappa which was once planted as shade for noble chiefs (ariki).
Kanono is found in wet and shaded forest areas where it can grow to 6 metres high, with a slender trunk and stout branches. Leaves grow up to 15 cm long with 2 cm or longer stalks.
