Over the past year, 12 of our artists have featured as ‘Botanical Artist of the Month’ in Kings Seeds newsletters. Kings Seeds, based in Katikati, Bay of Plenty. Kings Seeds are now the largest supplier of organically certified seed in New Zealand with over 100 varieties of fruit, veg, flowers to choose from.

This is the second year we have partnered with Kings Seeds along with 11 other horticulturally based companies in New Zealand.
Each of the 12 partners are promoted for a month through out the year in Kings Seeds monthly newsletters in exchange for donating products to 12 lucky Kings Seeds customers at the end of that month.
