The GardenerLandsendt has been in the Endt family since 1962.
The garden has evolved from a subtropical orchard to a garden featuring many unusual plants. Dick Endt travelled extensively through South America in search of lost crops of the Incas. He also fell in love with palms and was a founder of the NZ Palm Society. Carolyn and Anthony Melling (Dick and Annemarie's daughter and son in law) Have transformed the orchard and plant collection into a garden which showcases the amazing plants. They have opened up this paradise for weddings and other functions. You no longer need to go to Fiji for a tropical experience. |
