He,
Which is the zone where the climate is milder in winter and less sucker?
Bay of Plenty?
I know that in the Bay of Plenty there are avocado.
Do you know where are cultivations of avocado, fejoa, tamarillo?
What about Wellinton?
Best regards
Alessandro

Windy Wellington did not get that name for nothing. Cold wet and windy there. Bay of Plenty climate is average. Gets plenty of rain and sunshine. Northland is the best temperate climate.

Best source I found with quick search on "zealand climate" is the national weather and climate agency NIWA:

FWIW, I have an avocado tree within sight of the sea here in Wanganui--but in part of yard protected from wind. Harvested 164 Haas last year off it. Also have citrus, apricot, and plum that all do well. NZ is different from many areas in that it tends to be more humid, more windy, more influenced by seas, and gets lots of rain. We get about 3' (900mm) a year, spread out quite evenly, and it's cool enough to not want air conditioning and only frosts once or twice a year at our place. Think Santa Cruz or Monterrey CA for comparison.

East coast is hot and dry in the summer and cold and crisp in the winter. The temp range will be -2C to 37C (the hottest I experienced in Napier), whereas the west coast has more rain with less temperature variation - around 0C to 28C (I've experienced those extremes in Auckland
