Pukeiti : Pukeiti features one of the world's greatest collections of rhododendrons, azaleas and other rare plants. It's set in 320ha of luxuriant rainforest on the lower slopes of Mt Taranaki that contains more than 20km of bush tracks, mountain streams, old logging lines and a waterwheel. The gardens are run as a charitable trust whose members are dedicated to providing one of the world's great collections of rhododendrons and azaleas. The undercover Vireya rhododendron collection is world class and there are more than 10,000 shrubs set in the rainforest - a visual feast at any time of the year, but at its peak from September to November. In late October New Plymouth promotes these and other gardens as part of a Rhododendron Festival Week. All photographs ©Nguy&#7877;n v&#259;n Tu&#7845;n

Butchart Gardens, Victoria, British Columbia : Fifty-five acres of wonderful floral display are open to the public, offering spectacular views from the many paths that meander through the four main gardens. In 1904, Jennie Butchart began to beautify a worked-out quarry site left behind from her husband's pioneering efforts in the manufacture of portland cement. The family's commitment to horticulture and hospitality spans 100 years, and continues to delight visitors from all over the world. 这是一个在废弃的采石场上建立的花园。唯一的痕迹是花园边缘保留的巨大烟囱。否则，没人能将这样一个美丽的花园和光秃秃的采石场联系起来。

Pohutukawa : Pohutukawas are known as New Zealand's Christmas trees because of the bright red blooms which decorate the trees over Christmas and summer. For most Kiwis, they trigger happy memories of long summer days and holidays spent with friends and family around and under these magnificent trees. All photographs ©Nguyễn văn Tuấn

Tupare : On the boundary of New Plymouth is Tupare, one of two Taranaki gardens managed by the Queen Elizabeth II National Trust. In 1932, Sir Russell and Lady Matthews started to create a garden from a hillside wilderness on the edge of the Waiwhakaiho River. After a lifetime of artistic creation and love, the Matthews relinquished their 3.6ha landscaped gardens and Chapman Taylor Tudor Style home to ensure the protection of Tupare as part of New Zealand’s heritage.
