Kokopu spawn in Tradescantia

From a Stuff article today about gully restoration in urban Hamilton:

"This particular gully holds a remarkable population of giant kōkopu, which appear to be thriving in its stream’s clear waters. Perversely, they spawn their eggs in tradescantia, a notorious groundcover weed that is the bane of gully restorers everywhere. The tradescantia which fringes the stream provides the perfect spot for the eggs to mature before hatching the next time a flood reaches them. So for now, the weed stays."
