If you would like to experience some of Waikanae’s most stunning gardens put the 30th and 31stJanuary 2010 in your calendar now as the Waikanae Lions Super Garden Trail is on again and will be just as enjoyable as last year.

Thirteen stunning town and beach gardens in Waikanae will be on display in this summer’s Waikanae Lions Super Garden Trail that is being held the weekend following Wellington Anniversary Day to avoid the congestion of holiday traffic.

This summer’s Garden Trail provides a rare opportunity to view exceptional gardens ranging from attractive cottage gardens to enchanting compact town and beach gardens to spacious lifestyle retreats with expansive lawns and special features. The Trail will include the garden of Julian Matthews who is one of New Zealand's leading gardening writers and a former longtime editor of The Gardener magazine. He has a magnificent garden full of foliage plants.

The annual Waikanae Lions Super Garden Trail has been a very popular event for garden lovers throughout the lower North Is and has raised in excess of $330,000 for many charities. This year the funds raised will be donated to the Wellington Ronald McDonald House redevelopment.

Morning and afternoon teas and light lunches will also be available at 42 Ngarara Road to provide a restful garden experience with the proceeds going to The Cancer Society. By taking part in the “discover the plants” and “lucky ticket” competitions, visitors could win one of ten prizes for $50 plant selections or six $100 Gardening Gift Cards or two Landscape Design packages.

Tickets for the Garden Trail and a brochure showing the location of each garden are available from Kapiti Garden Centres or from the individual gardens on the weekend of the Garden Trail.

The gardens will be open from 10.00am until 5.00pm each day and for only $15.00 per person per day, visitors can enjoy a wonderful day out visiting these stunning Waikanae gardens.
