Willow Springs Garden, nestled within seven lush acres in Christchurch, embodies resilience, beauty, and natural heritage. Born from the aftermath of the Christchurch earthquakes, this garden has become a sanctuary for treasured plants rescued from the devastated 'red zones' of Christchurch and Kaiapoi. Over an 18-month period, mature rhododendrons, magnolias, maples, and other cherished specimens—some nearing 80 years old—were painstakingly relocated here, now thriving as symbols of hope and renewal.

Nestled just outside Oxford near the foothills of the Southern Alps, Oasis Cottage is a charming cottage steeped in history dating back to 1898. This historical charm is further enhanced by its five-acre country garden, which beautifully combines formal elegance with natural charm.

Whakapuni Station is a working sheep and beef farm in the South Wairarapa, just a 20 minute drive from Martinborough. The property was purchased by Andy and Bridget Mathewson in 2008 and has taken on quite the transformation since. The homestead was built in 1931 so the garden is a mix of old and new which adds to the interest and surprise around each corner.
