The Sullivan Garden began as an asparagus paddock and, over 26 years, has transformed into a curvaceous creation. This Hāwera beauty is plump with roses and rhododendrons (about 150) and ablaze with azaleas. During December 2023, many rhododendrons were cut back to improve plant vitality and views. Curved paths and clipped hedges provide definition and form, while sweeping lawns frame views of Taranaki Maunga. Cottage plantings, pots brimming with flowers and foliage, along with garden art, help create vistas throughout. This property featured in NZ House & Garden and NZ Gardener magazines.
