Three fabulous private gardens rarely open to the public in Burradoo and two in Exeter will open their gates for the weekend in aid of SHBG. The plant fair at the Southern Highlands Botanic Gardens will feature live music on Sunday 27 April by ‘Short & Horny’ jazz band.
Tickets $50 for all five gardens and the plant fair, or $15 per garden & $10 for plant fair.
Burradoo Gardens
Three very different gardens in Burradoo, ranging from a large scale garden with rural views, an historic garden around an impressive heritage listed house, and an eclectic cottage garden filled with interesting plants.
Garden accessibility – All gardens are gently undulating with no steep slopes. Paths are generally lawn or mulch, with few paved or gravel paths. Some gardens have steps, but can be avoided by using alternate routes.
Exeter Gardens
A very large country garden is a haven for both seasoned horticulturists and casual admirers, offering a delightful blend of nature and artistry. As you stroll along the meandering paths, each turn reveals a new surprise—a hidden grove, a whimsical statue, or a tranquil pond reflecting the sky above.
The second garden is a modern garden on 2 acres, filled to abundance with plant treasures including an impressive rose garden and collection of hydrangeas.
Garden accessibility – Both gardens are gently undulating with no steep slopes. Paths are generally lawn or mulch, with few paved or gravel paths. Some gardens have steps, but can be avoided by using alternate routes.
