Tulip garden open days
We are open again today in the much more pleasant weather. We invite you to come and see our terraced property with themed garden rooms and 2,500 tulips. They are all colour coordinated so there is sure to be a combination that is your favourite. Technically we are planning to open for a couple more weekends but with the weather being like it has been the tulips may finish early this year so don't wait if you can. You can always come again and see the late tulips. The courtyards Coconut ice theme and the Mediterranean slopes berry nice scheme are at their peak now.
Plants from our garden are also for sale.
Entry by donation please.

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
