A Lovely New Zealand Sanctuary

Let ’s take a tonic sojourn to Niru and Mohan Patel ’s garden in Auckland , New Zealand !

" Here are some photos of our garden in South Auckland , New Zealand . We love sub tropical plants , which thrive here in the summertime , but need protection during the frigid wintertime hoar . We live in a rural aspect , surrounded by green pasture airfield , which are being slowly taken over by new housing . This is our little sanctuary , away from the in use traffic , closelipped neighbours and the city center . The garden ’s have been uprise and designed by my plant - loving hubby . When we bought this dimension , 20 years ago , it was made up of mere grass paddock , that housed horse . It has been a labour of love , and we still enjoy adding unexampled plants that we wish . Luckily , we both enjoy gardening ! "
