Flower power

ASB Discovery Marquee

With flowers and plants in rapid grow mode for the annual Ellerslie Flower Show it seems an opportune time to showcase the ASB Discovery Marquee, the pride and joy of the 2003 show.

Incorporating a waterfall, ice caves, murals, a moat and a pleasure dome, one shouldn't expect to see this garden in anyone's backyard. Thousands of feet trod the pathways through the garden to admire the contrasting elements and the rainbow of paint colours. Coloured and protected by hundreds of litres of Resene paint, hues of Resene Modular Green (metallic green), Resene Endeavour (blue), Resene Broom (yellow), Resene Resolution Blue (blue), Resene Nero (near black), Resene Gold Dust (metallic gold), Resene Deep Koamaru (deep blue) and Resene Atlantis (green) dominate the view combined with other colour features. With lush carpets of flowers, exquisite palms and the clever juxtaposition of elements, the garden was the unanimous highlight of the 2003 show.

A blooming success.
