Unraveling the mysteries of floral life in a natural setting
,p>Walking into the Auckland Botanical Garden, one finds its floral treasures both soothing and stimulating. In spite of being categorized in a scientific manner, the garden has managed to preserve its natural graces while invoking the traveller's curiosity about the deep mysteries of the plant families.
65 hectares of land constitutes this premier garden in south Auckland, in Manurewa, which was inaugurated in 1982 mainly with the intention of discovering plants that are best suited to the Auckland climate .Today over 10,000 plants inhabit this garden that has special sections for different species of not only plants but flowers as well.
Strolling along the garden, one finds both excellently structured settings like cemented walkways and stone bridges as well as natural settings like forest trails, lakes and evasive pathways that stand invitingly with their raw and ravishing wildly unrestricted beauty. The lush greenery that soothes and enthrals the nature lover is well complemented with the vivid hues of flowers like roses and camellias. The blue-green lakes reflect these surroundings in their crystal clear depths and their tiny wavelets and ripples when the wind leaves traces of its silent flight.
Tranquillity dwells everywhere in the garden and the prevailing calm is only broken in sections like the children's area where there is a maze, and fun and frolic appears to be a complementary change to the quiet garden. The garden's specialties include the threatened native plant collection, the rose garden and the native forest trail. Another useful section is the urban trees section which contains plants that are ideal to be grown in private gardens.
Visiting the botanical gardens is easy when you are residing at one of the finest hotels in auckland nz such as the The Langham Auckland.
