New Zealand is a fairly isolated country in the south Pacific. It is surrounded by miles and miles of oceans. One would expect the New Zealand would be home to very unique species of flowers. On my very causal look at the floral landscape of New Zealand. I have seen very little native species. I visited several botanic gardens. Most of their flowers are tropical and exotic species. The situation seems to be the same in Malaysia or in Honolulu. This suggests that modern transportation advances are changing the flora composition across the world.

Editor's Notes
- Ref : Wifkipedia / Flora of New Zealand – NZ geographically isolated meant the country has developed a unique variety of native flora. However, human migration has led to the importation of many other plants, as well as widespread damage to the indigenous flora. New Zealand is a fairly isolated country in the south Pacific.
