  Woodland Garden, Christchurch Botanic Gardens

  

  I was on my way to visit the Heritage rose garden when I discovered how lovely this pathway in the Woodland garden is looking. There’s even a little babbling brook running through it for the birds to drink from.

  Botanic Gardens Access Road

  

  I always think how lovely the short drive into the Botanic Gardens is – so I very quickly stood in the middle of the road to take my photo. It looks so green at this time of year – and an almost surreal version of green.

  It’s Tulip Time at the Botanic Gardens

  

  Tulips are one of my favourite flowers and I delight in growing them at home in pots and around the garden. And each October, I look forward to seeing what the Christchurch Botanic Gardens have planted in their tulip beds – it’s always a stunning display.

  I had a quick walk around Mona Vale Gardens today. There are some lovely blossom trees out at the moment.
