About
Pseudopanax ferox, commonly known as toothed lancewood or horoeka, is a small heteroblastic tree which belongs to the family Araliaceae. It is endemic to New Zealand, and is similar to the more common lancewood, Pseudopanax crassifolius, but with more prominently tooth-shaped leaves. The tree is sometimes called fierce lancewood, in reference to its fierce-looking saw-tooth shaped juvenile leaves.
