After lunch in Parnell, next stop was the Auckland Domain and a visit to the Wintergardens. We had been here last month with Joan and Steve, but the majority of plants have changed since then. Although I am a big fan of sunflowers I had never seen one this colour.

In the tropical house, several of the lily pads were starting to unfurl.
