ABC of Pictures - T

T is for...   Toetoe  ( pronounced: toytoy)

A bit of Kiwiana.. The Toetoe is New Zealands' largest native grass, it grows in clumps up to three metres tall and is found in coastal areas. The leaves are spiky and quite sharp, while the creamy, white
parts are silky soft to the touch.

You always know when you are close to the beach when you see clumps of Toetoe.
