RELIVE THE EXPERIENCE
Multiple gold medal winner Ben Hoyle will exhibit his Pure
Indulgence garden, which he describes as “the fusion
of all things sweet and horticultural treats…a magical
journey in a truly dreamlike world”.
Ms Hillier says the Surf’s Scent-ual Garden, inspired
by striking scents such as lime, mint, lavender and lemons
will be another garden not to be missed.
“Designed by Xanthe White, this visually appealing garden
will take you through a fragrant wonderland.”
There will be a record 40 gardens at this year’s Show
– the biggest turnout since the Show moved to Christchurch
.
Around 65,000 people are expected over the five days from
Wednesday 9 to Sunday 13 March. Last year the Show attracted
57,000 visitors.
Managing Director Dave Mee says so far ticket sales are up
on last year.
“It would be great to have the weather on our side too
– but either way we’re looking forward to seeing
the families and avid gardens alike come to enjoy a fantastic
day out.”
Today is also the last day for early bird tickets with adult
Any Day tickets $29 each and children’s Any Day tickets
$4 each.
From tomorrow (Tuesday 15 February) Any Day adult tickets
will be $40 each and children’s Any Day tickets $5 each.
Tickets can be purchased at Ticketek.co.nz and are also available
from Christchurch City Council, Ballantynes and the i-site
from this Wednesday 16 February.
