Hamilton's Vera Farrant has raised thousands for Habitat for Humanity

Few plants in Vera Farrant's jam-packed garden escape being divided and potted up to be sold at Habitat for Humanity's Hamilton ReStore shop - and thanks to her efforts, she's now a finalist in the 2016 GARDENA Gardener of the Year competition. 

Nic Greene, who works for the housing charity, estimates that Farrant's plants have raised over $100,000 for the organisation since 2000. If you consider that most of the plants sell for just a couple of dollars, that's a lot of plants!
