Baker Garden

The Baker Garden 20 Wells Gardens, Griffith

Completely redeveloped on a 930 sq m Canberra block this gardener’s garden is designed to provide colour and interest all year round.  Includes many sculptures plus stone walls and bird baths.  Pine bark mulch, drippers and no lawn make it a low maintenance garden.  Hidden behind lattice at the rear are productive raised veggie beds, fruit trees, a covered potting area and composting production.

Finn’s End

Finn's End 2 Finn Street, O'Connor

This traditional garden features large trees, massed groundcover and prominent hedges framing distinct outside activity areas in summer shade.   Well paved paths guide the visitor around this ‘Tocumwal’ dwelling.  This is one of the 200 American Army Air Corps homes constructed in 1942, which were moved from Tocumwal in the Riverina to Canberra in the late 1940s.  Most ended up in the O’Connor cluster of 8 streets. #Tocumwal Precinct O’Connor. Rachel and Gabriel have rented this property for a short while and, with the agreement of the owners, are progressively restoring the gardens to complement the dwelling, its surrounds and streetscape.
