Eden starts here: Grow Landscapes
We know spring has sprung in Christchurch when both North and South Hagley Parks are carpeted in spring bulbs and our world-renowned blossom trees on Harper Avenue burst into flower.
Gardeners come out of hibernation, excited and eager to implement all those landscape plans their brains have been incubating over winter. First and foremost, every gardener (and non-gardener) needs a little inspiration and advice, and Grow Landscape and Lifestyle is the ideal place to start.
Thanks to a discerning curation process, everything here is that little bit different. The words exotic, artisan, textural and magnificent would not be out of place here. From pots, bowls, planters and troughs through to water features and cloud trees, this can only be described as the garden lover’s Garden of Eden.
Water features are a specialty here, and with over 30 models on display, there is something to please everyone.
From classic urns through to contemporary copper panels and everything in between, browsing these water-features at leisure is a highly pleasurable experience. All that is required for the water features are a power and water supply.
They can be delivered and installed by the team, or can just as easily be installed by the customer, if preferred.
Lots of pots
Fans of terracotta will not be disappointed by the vast array of terracotta pots that showcase the most beautiful glazes and textures.
Also popular are planters, pots and troughs (of up to 2 metres in length) of lightweight fibreglass/cement, which make for easy manoeuvring when required.
For the ultimate garden talking point, nothing comes near a cloud tree; once seen you know you have to have one.
Cloud trees are best described as really big bonsai. Up to at least 20 years old, typically a cloud tree is trimmed into elaborate shapes, transforming the tree into a natural sculptural artwork.
Open six days – Monday to Friday, 9.00am to 5.00pm, and Saturdays from 10.00am to 4.00pm, there is no better time to get your garden gorgeous for spring than right now.
Grow Landscape and Lifestyle can arrange delivery throughout New Zealand, or call in for a browse at 69 Moorhouse Avenue, Christchurch. Phone 03 365 9945.
