Beautifully landscaped rhododendron garden. Just plan enough time so that you can enjoy everything

The garden has more than 1200 species of rhododendron, with at least three plants of each species. It is somewhat controversial in New Zealand, as the plants are not actually native here and should not be introduced.
The garden is also highly recommended outside of the rhododendron blooming season (September - November) with many small gardens.

A truly built garden, and one that's free for me, too. There are 1,250 rhododendron species here. The rainforest paths are a bit adventurous...
