Botanical Bingo
Botanical Bingo was developed and designed in NZ and features 48 numbered cards with illustrations of native flora of Aotearoa New Zealand painted by local artist Erin Forsyth.
The cotton bag holds the counters with their corresponding names and numbers. Whilst having fun playing bingo, you can also learn about the plants from the enclosed booklet. It provides information and trivia on all 48 plants.
Botanical Playing Cards
Designed for the most discerning card players, these top quality, waterproof, long lasting synthetic cards are ideal for Bridge and other card games.
The back of the cards display paintings of the Kowhai and Puawananga flowers painted by artist Erin Forsyth. The beautifully presented box has a hinged magnetic lid. On the underside of the lid is written information about each plant.
All Connor Collection profits are donated to Purangi Conservation Trust.
Jo Connor, who developed this collection, grew up on the West Coast and was introduced to the flowers of the English woodlands and gardens by her grandmother’s game of “Botanical Lotto”
She learned the names of the plants as she sought to be the first to have all the numbers of the plants on her board called and win the game.
Now, 70 years later she has created Botanical Bingo and the Botanical Playing Cards which each showcase native New Zealand flora.
