The
Garden
Here
are some of the typical views you will see as you travel the roads, trails and
pathways covering over a hundred hectares. We
have many beautiful plants from dryland Australia integrated with the natural bush, no manicured lawns and few landscaped displays. For
individual plant images, please go to What's
Flowering.

- Art
in the Garden
The
marriage of art and science is natural here - Dave Gordon our founder
was a keen amateur botanist and Dorothy his wife a talented artist, and
today many of our volunteers are artists. Here we show some
of the works inspired by the Garden, and some of the subject matter
behind the inspirations.
More details of our artworks can be found at Gallery
and in our
fact sheet (in
Acrobat .pdf format)
Angophora
Themes
Angophora
leiocarpa grows happily and abundantly here. The bark of this eucalypt-like
tree undergoes spectacular colour changes in summer, making it a favourite subject
for artists and photographers.
