BeaverLea

10am to 4pm, 12th and 13th October 2024

This cottage style garden started in March 2013 with the installation of a three-tiered fountain in front of the outdoor room, and the garden proceeded from there.  There are three loosely divided rooms from the entry, a European style area which moves into a large lawn area, surrounded by crepe myrtles and two raised vegetable gardens.  Around the side of the house, through an enclosed courtyard one enters the front garden facing the oval.  All the plantings come from an eclectic taste of flowers and trees which the owner could not resist and indulged herself on whimsical impulse. The owner considers the front her “Arboreal Cathedral” which, more or less, came with the house.

BeaverLea and the adjacent garden Narrawong will open together on the same $10 ticket.
