This large naturalistic garden is a great garden to explore.  Plants have been selected for hardiness in this exposed site and suitability for their 1880s cottage, which was moved to this site in 1925.   The owners have continually re-developed the garden using a large range of native and exotic plants include spring bulbs, unusual roses and Mediterranean shrubs and ground-covers.  The garden features very large pots used for bromeliads and water features and art pieces.  There is also an expanded food production area, a mulching zone and relaxation areas. This garden has continued to evolve since its first opening in November 2021. Nearby attractions include a River Walk and Queanbeyan’s Floriade gardens (see below).

Displays of stained glass, leadlight and mosaic items by Rachael from Groovy Glass ACT for sale.
