Ōrākei, Auckland
Overlooking Auckland’s iconic Waitematā Harbour, this charming coastal garden is connected by paths that make full use of its contained space and removes the need for gravel or lawn.
A layered planting scheme takes centre stage here, featuring a diverse mix of fragrant plants including citrus trees, hibiscus and gardenia.
Creeping carpets of thyme, westringia and feathery phylica invite a languid, summery disposition all year round.
