The next Friday Jeanette and I were able to visit the Quarry Gardens in Whangarei. It is an impressive community project that has created a sub tropical garden in an old quarry. Because of the sheltered area it stays very warm and they are able to grow a remarkable variety of plants. All of the garden work is done by volunteers and it has inspired other community gardens.
I was very jealous of their hibiscus and wish that I could get mine back in Arizona to look half as good!
