The Property:
In this cool-climate garden there are drifts of colourful bulbs and fruit trees laden with blossom in the spring while masses of roses, irises, lavenders, fuchsias, Lupins, hollyhocks and perennials-alike make a wonderful summer display. A kaleidoscope of colour from the deciduous trees heralds the autumn and in mid-winter the drifts of hellebores and French lavender are delightful. There is a myriad of birds living in the garden and Wedge Tail eagles are regularly seen over-head.
The lush pasture for a few lazy cows also makes for a fine feed for wallabies and other wildlife as the night draws in. On the banks of the pristine river, passing thru from Mt. Wellington, at the edge of our property you may be lucky enough to spot platypus and native trout.
