Poll: Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Tens of thousands more people visited Hamilton Gardens than city bosses expected in the last financial year, despite a new gate charge.

And it seems publicity around the charge might have even brought more people in, with fears of punters being driven away being finally composted.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
