Havens of nature

A vertical garden on part of a historic ship on the side of a busy bridge is the latest addition to a Dunedin space, installed by Oasis Greenery Systems.  The space under and beside the Jetty St overbridge in the heart of the warehouse precinct is a paved and shadowed landscape of concrete, asphalt and steel, but Darren Rice is providing small havens of nature he describes as "a vertical element in a horizontal situation".
