Past Events

The opening of this garden has unfortunately been cancelled.    

A pretty established cottage garden on an awkward sloping block. In spring, the dogwoods are a picture; in the autumn deciduous trees and vines add colour.

This is large garden on a steep north facing slope, with a treasury of over 500 species of flowering and non-flowering native trees, shrubs and groundcovers.

Sloping garden with extensive plantings. Includes many peonies, camellias, tree ferns, and features a beautiful climbing rose (Pierre de Ronsard) at the front, and a pond and extensive vegetable garden in the rear.

A garden inspired by countries the owner’s family call home: Morocco, France and Australia. Located in a heritage precinct in Barton.

Disused tennis courts have been transformed into a viable community garden, with a shed, water supply, and garden beds.

The garden includes many mature fruit trees, vegetable beds, traditional ornamentals and special floral interests including irises and peonies. 

The garden's 40 year history is present in the old fruit trees, remnant pine trees, an old camellia, roses, and the curved pathways, steps, and rock structures. New courtyards, garden beds, steps and paths follow the original template. 

Rock walls allow for built up garden beds with improved soil and drainage. English box hedges divide areas including a parterre garden. Large mirrors on the boundary fences create illusions of depth.

The garden features over 1000 individual species, including more than 70 acacia species and more than 70 grevillea species, making for a spectacular spring display.
