Australian Inland Botanic Gardens
Our holiday in Victoria
September 2007
On our last day in Victoria we briefly went back over the River Murray into New South Wales. We went to visit the Australian Inland Botanic Gardens. This meant that we had visited five different botanic gardens during our four week holiday.
We had previously visited these gardens some four or five years before. It was only in the early stages of development then. This time we could see the vast changes that had occurred during the intervening years. Extensive plantings of both natives and exotics (which we didn’t go to see) have made these gardens well worth the visit. Besides – entrance is currently free. That may change in the future.
