A visit to Palmer's Garden Centre, Hamilton
Pretty new coloured petunia
Plant Racks
Trees and Shrubs
Flowering shrubs
Many assorted plants
Palmers is our biggest garden centre company in NZ. They are nation wide and sell a large assortment of things associated with gardens and gardening, as you will see in my next blog.
Their plants are of a high quality. The only drawback that I can see is that many of the garden plants are grown in Auckland, which has a warmer climate than here in Hamilton. This means that the plants need to be hardened off before planting early season outside in the garden. When it warms up this is not a problem.

Ah- what lovely signs of spring!
I quite enjoy taking these day trips with you.. if only through my monitor. Lovely pics, Dave.
Gosh, it's well and truly winter over where we are! What a fabulous garden centre, I'm sure I could lose myself for days in there.
Fi, yes, it will be nice when the weather stabilises though.
Hilary, thanks. Nice to have you along. :-)
Shrinky, thanks for calling. Yes, it's a nice garden centre - Dave
