Again you have taken lovely pics. We didn't manage to get there but did go to the Botanical Gardens in Welly. We loved it there.

I like the herb Garden and the tropical looking one in Auckland, (she says planning for when she next gets a garden). :clap It looks a lovely place to go.

From the entrance, you wouldn't guess what hides behind that big wall.

Beautiful pics Ivy, thanks :nice1 - I must do a tour of them all (as an ex National Trust member I need my fix of garden visits!!!).

Is it in central Auckland?

Moorf,

It is located near my house in Manurewa, South Auckland.
