Mona Vale Garden

I'm alive. Yes I am still alive! Its been a long time since you've heard from me. And I assure you guys, I MISS YOU ALL! Today I have a treat for you, let me bring you to a place where you can see me most of the time. Probably reading a book or just staring on a blank canvas feeling the wind and getting one with nature. 

It's a place called MONA VALE GARDEN located in Fendalton Rd, Riccarton. It is a very good place to unwind and walk and enjoy the beautiful garden beside the river. 

"Mona Vale Garden is an historic Victorian Homestead surrounded by gardens that feature English and European trees, herbaceous perennials and beds of annuals. Frederick and Alice Waymouth commissioned the buildings in 1899 and were responsible for much of the planting seen today. When Annie Quayle Townend became the second owner, she was responsible for the addition of the fernery along with further expansions. In 1960s the property passed into city ownership and continues to be managed by the city council, with help from volunteers and enthusiast."

Let me share with you some of the photos I've taken and let the photos speaks for itself. Enjoy!
