- Knightia excelsa, Rewarewa in Māori, or New Zealand honeysuckle, is an evergreen tree endemic to the low elevation and valley forests of New Zealand's North Island and Marlborough Sounds (41° S) and the type species for the genus Knightia. Rewarewa grows to 30 m tall, with a slender crown. The leaves are alternate, leathery, narrow oblong, 10 - 15 cm long and 2.5 - 3.5 cm wide, and without stipules. The flowers are 2 - 3.5 cm long, bright red, and borne in racemes 10 cm long. It was called "New Zealand honeysuckle" by early European settlers but the name has fallen into disuse in preference for the Māori name. Rewarewa flowers are a great source for honey production.
- Knightia excelsa, Rewarewa en idioma maorí, o madreselva de Nueva Zelanda (New Zealand honeysuckle en inglés), es un árbol perennifolio endémico de los bosques y valles de baja elevación de Nueva Zelanda en la Isla del Norte y Marlborough Sounds. El rewarewa crece hasta 30 metros de altura, con una esbelta copa. Las hojas son alternadas, vellosas, estrechamente oblongas, 10 - 15 cm de largo y 2,5 - 3,5 cm de ancho, y sin estípulas. Las flores miden 2 - 3,5 cm de largo, rojas brillosas, y salen en racimos de 10 cm de largo. Fue nombrada como " madreselva de Nueva Zelanda" por los primeros colonizadores europeos pero el nombre ha caído en desuso en preferencia por el nombre maorí. Las flores de rewarewa son una gran fuente para la producción de miel.
