About us
This website is the official website of Palm and Cycad Society of New Zealand (PACSONZ) dedicated to sharing information about cultivation, conservation and enjoyment of plants known as palms and cycads.
PACSONZ members appreciate the joy of growing palms, cycads and other plants in gardens ranging from small residential lots to large rural properties. Our members include hobbyists, landscape designers, commercial plant growers and plant enthusiasts.
PACSONZ is a non-profit charitable organization (IRD number 048-303-684) and operates under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022. Donations are tax-deductible as allowed by law.
PACSONZ members
We all pursue our passion, but the joy of sharing it, on a formal and informal basis, is so much greater.
