Pingao — the Golden Sand Sedge
by Averil Herbert and Jenny Oliphant (Nga Puna Waihanga) THIS EXCELLENT 32-page booklet brings together the art, weaving traditions, legends and natural history of pingao. Authors Averil Herbert and Jenny Oliphant have also documented the efforts of weavers, Maori groups and conservationists to replant dunelands in pingao. Their booklet outlines replanting projects throughout New Zealand and gives clear instructions on how to propagate and plant out pingao. Produced by Nga Puna Waihanga (the Maori artists and writers’ runanga), and launched at their national council meeting in May, the booklet is available direct from the Forest and Bird mail order for $9.95 (see catalogue).
