Melbourne Garden Tour

Hi

 

Absolutely Fabulous   Black Tulip   Ali Mau   Clematis Hakau Ooken   Cornus National

We went to the Melbourne Flower Show many years ago and had an amazing time so that we have decided that we are all going back again escorted by Anthony as Tour host. Melbourne is a fabulous city to visit, with great food, shopping and of course gardens.

Anthony has been associated with Wairere for many years years, at least twelve, and in that time we have had many projects togather. With gold and silver awards from the Ellerslie flower show under his belt he has become one of New zealands leading garden designers.

Denise who is passionate about gardens and involved Anthony, who helped her in realising her dreams with her own garden. He designed her garden from start to finish (even planting) and it was Anthony's vision that brought it all together. Over the years they have become good friends!

Garden designer and travel agent have come together and put a package tour of both their passions and would like you to join them and us on a fabulous long weekend away in Melbourne at the flower show and several of the local gardens.

Please check out his website and read about this talented person and also see my garden
