Description
An inspiring guide to outstanding New Zealand gardens that are open to visit (and sometimes to stay).
Visiting a beautiful garden feeds your soul and lifts your spirits. Here are more than 50 remarkable New Zealand gardens, all of them open to visit.
Well-known garden photographer Juliet Nicholas and journalist Rosemary Barraclough travelled from the top of Aotearoa to its southernmost regions to track down this collection of captivating private and public gardens. There's something to appeal to every taste—from gardens that burst with flowers and fragrance, to wilder places that celebrate eco-friendly, naturalistic trends, and gardens built on their owners' passions, whether it's for butterflies, bromeliads, or bamboo.
Visit these outstanding gardens in person, or simply enjoy them through the pages of New Zealand Gardens to Visit.
Arranged in geographical sections from north to south, it features one or two gardens in each area for close attention, then others in slightly less detail, plus a final list of other gardens around the country that are worth visiting. Each section includes engaging text about the people who created the gardens, their gardening wisdom, the best time of year to visit, and outstanding features. The regions are: Northland; Auckland; Waikato & Coromandel; Gisborne & Hawke's Bay; Taranaki; Manawatu; Wellington & Wairarapa; Marlborough & Nelson; Canterbury; Otago & Southland.

About the Author
Juliet Nicholas is based in Christchurch and has featured in many lifestyle magazines and in several books, including our own Flourish (with Barb Rogers) and In the Company of Gardeners (with Sue Allison). Rosemary Barraclough is an award-winning magazine journalist, who spent nearly a decade working for NZ House & Garden. She particularly loves writing about gardeners, who are a generous, likeable, down-to-earth lot, she says. Rosemary's happy place is her bach garden in Northland, where natives, hibiscus and frangipani grow at an incredible rate.
