Visit Our History for more information on the growth of the Gardens. Our vision for the Gardens guides our long term development: A spectacular South Pacific Botanic Garden that is widely recognised for its outstanding plant collections, Auckland regional identity and the interest inspired in the community. A focus on creating unique gardens and landscapes has resulted in a spectacular garden with a distinctive South Pacific flavour. Our team are extremely knowledgeable about plants, and are passionate about connecting our visitors to plants and gardens. As horticultural experts, our role is to help people engage with plants and gardens, and to highlight their importance in everyday life. We run regular workshops and drop-in sessions where our staff can give expert advice and tips to our visitors. Keep an eye on our event calendar for upcoming sessions.
