AKA kānuka, but that common name is usually applied to Kunzea ericoides. On the other hand, this species was part of the K. ericoides species complex until 2014. On the other hand, genetic differences between species in the complex are slight, and they may have to be folded back into one species again.

Until then, this particular species is most common in low-lying and coastal areas, and nearby hills, on the North and South Island.
