Summer Garden Open Day 34 St Johns Tce, Tawa Sunday 20th February 10am until 4pm

Carolyn from Tawa

After much dithering about Omicron and then assessing damage after last weekends storm we have decided we will open our garden to visitors this Sunday. If you visited in Spring to view the tulips you will see how very different a seasonally planted garden can appear at various times of the year. At the moment the perennial sunflowers are in full bloom, the border is a vibrant mix of colours, the jungle is lush and beautiful dahlias are dotted here, there and everywhere. We are very proud to say that our garden is to be featured in the New Zealand Gardener in a couple of months time so if you would like to experience the real life version please come and visit this Sunday.
Entry by donation please.
Masks and scan/sign in required
34 St Johns Tce, Tawa
