"The timeless gardens of Pukeiti, set in the rainforest on the foothills of Mt Taranaki, is one of New Zealand's garden treasures. Pukeiti is a ‘Garden of National Significance’, and has the finest rhododendron collection in New Zealand, with more than 2000 different specimens. Plantings of natives also present a full range of species and hybrids to illustrate their versatility in the garden. Many thousands of bulbs and herbaceous plants add colour to the garden. Babbling streams run through the garden over moss-covered boulders on their way to the sea. Standing beside one of these beautiful streams with the sun shining through trees is breathtakingly special. The world seems a better place when strolling around Pukeiti."
This 32 page book is a great memento for visitors to the Pukeiti, or for anyone who has not visited Pukeiti but is interested in gardens this book will certainly inspire a visit.
