Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne

Our last event for 2012, the visit to the Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne, was voted a great success by the 35 members who joined in. The new section of the garden showcases worldclass design, with abundant ideas for small gardens and plantings to achieve colour harmony. The tour guides are well-informed and very helpful. Keep it in mind for visitors from interstate or overseas, as the food is also good.

The program for 2013 has now been finalised and will be circulated soon. It promises a wide variety of meetings and definitely looks exciting.

The new 6 hectare extension was officially opened only a few weeks ago. The Royal Botanic Gardens Cranbourne are dedicated to Australian flora and the new area showcases many exciting designs, including a dry garden. As well, there will be the opportunity to enjoy the delights of Spring throughout the remainder of the gardens. Walking shoes would be worth considering.
