Cranbourne Botanical Gardens Photographs

Australian native plants from all over with orchids growing under the cafe - visitors centre. Many were in flower as it is almost spring too. Our tour was taken at a leisurely pace over about 2 hours around the outer circle perimeter foot path, followed by a superb lunch in the cafe. The Garden was designed by the landscape architecture practice of Taylor Cullity Lethlean and covers 11 hectares with over 100,000 plants that have been planted over the last 3 years. Ephemeral Lake – by Edwina Kearney y and Mark Stoner - liquid-shaped ceramic plates. Diversity Gardens - plants from all states. Rocky waterway with large iron sculpture. Kids were seen later enjoying a paddle
