Name: Kauri
Scientific: Agathis australis
A.K.A.: Southern Kauri, New Zealand Kauri
Notes: The common name is in Māori. It is a coniferous tree in the family Araucariaceae, found north of 38°S in the northern regions of New Zealand's North Island. It is the largest (by volume) but not tallest species of tree in New Zealand. The tree has smooth bark and small narrow leaves. Because it is such a conspicuous species, forest containing kauri is generally known as kauri forest, although kauri need not be the most abundant tree. Kauri even act as a foundation species that modify the soil under their canopy to create unique plant communities. The young plant grows straight upwards and has the form of a narrow cone with branches going out along the length of the trunk. However, as it gains in height, the lowest branches are shed, preventing vines from climbing. By maturity, the top branches form an imposing crown that stands out over all other native trees, dominating the forest canopy.

All models can be switched between High Poly for close up renders, image or video production, and Low Poly for distant renders, use as game assets, or in real-time applications. All materials in this package are certified PBR compliant and have been tested in Unity and Unreal. Any reasonable modification available upon request. No charge to existing customers of the product, please contact via site mail.
Included are two versions, a full and a LITE version. Both versions give good results, but the full version is more accurate and better for hero or close up renders. The LITE version is intended mainly for mid or distant renders or eco use, or use on low end PCs.
EVERYPlant has a mission ... which is to model every plant species in the world (plus some extinct, fantasy and sci-fi variations as well)! Okay, maybe not EVERY plant! If you don't see it in our store, please get in contact; we have thousands of species on file awaiting upload.
