My current routine brings me to Epsom every day. I took the opportunity to take pictures of this amazing pohutukawa tree in Glenfell Place. Remarkable that the scoria wall stands there seemingly unaffected.

    I’ve seen tree roots sprawl over rock before, but nothing like this.

    Perhaps, Paul, the roots are actually helping the scoria wall to remain in tact … butressing to some extent. Quite remarkable.
