I have written about interesting New Zealand gardens in earlier blogs but here are a couple more I have come across in my research. I think they are worth another blog.
THE TREE CHURCH
In April 1864, the little village of Ohaupo, a short distance from Hamilton was built as a military post during the Waikato war. It was occupied by Bohemian militiamen who moved there from their settlement at Pūhoi north of Auckland. Some of their descendants still live there.
Local resident Barry Cox has put Ohaupo on the tourist map with his beautifully designed 3 acre garden. Barry has always been interested in churches and passionate about trees so he combined these two interests to construct his own living Church – the first in the world.
