Have you seen this amazing garden?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

They had a vision for their property, but they also had three floods in 20 years. That didn't stop them pursuing the garden of their dreams though.

New Zealand’s lush green pastures and temperate climate means our country produces some of the world’s best beef.

New Zealand is one of McDonald’s top ten beef-producing markets and it’s such a hit with the rest of the world that a significant percentage of NZ’s beef exports are to international McDonald’s markets.

We partner with many Kiwi farmers who produce our beef, including Whangara Farms which was the first beef farm outside of Europe to be invited to the McDonald’s Flagship Farmers programme.

ANZCO Foods, based in the small Taranaki town of Waitara, are responsible for making our 100% beef patties. About 90% of the staff at the Waitara plant are locals and they manage to produce around half a million patties each day.

Our quality beef cuts are minced and that’s it. No additives or fillers, just mince that is formed in patties, before they’re flash-frozen and sent to restaurants.

Softer form, more attractive habit with blue green foliage and suits drier conditions than P. tenax. Grows around 1.5m high to 2m in diameter. Wonderful for attracting tuis and bellbirds when in flower. Currently we have 70 plants available, trimmed and in bags at $2 per plant - many more coming over the next few months. Either buy now, or put in an order. Text message Anna on 021 55 2112. Address for pick up is 99 Hinau Gully Road, Carterton. Look for gargoyles on stone gateway. Cheers.
