A Visit to the Winter Gardens Auckland
It is always a pleasure to visit the Winter Gardens in Auckland, in April there
was a riot of chrysanthemums, dahlias and many other species which
I could only guess at.
My little granddaughter loved the water lilies, peering into the water we
could see shoals of tiny fish.
There were so many people photographing these chrysanthemums
that I had to dodge around them to get any shots.
The spikey ones are my favourites and what a wonderful smell
so evocative!
This beautiful flowering plant was covered in blossom.

Auckland was at its' Autumny best with glorious sunny days and then
some thunder and heavy showers. This photo, taken from the garden where
we were staying, shows what appeared to be a tornado breaking up.
