The key to this cottage style garden which surrounds the house, is the large number and variety of roses on beds, walls and trellises. The rose displays are complemented with a wide selection of perennial beds, shrubs and small trees such as maples, magnolias, ginghos and crepe myrtles, most of which have been planted in the last five years.The garden frames the back deck, the shelter and hidden courtyards, which all provide comfort and vantage points and hold pieces of art. There is also a surprising variety of fruit and vegetables and service area scattered throughout the rear garden.
There is plenty of parking in the street and opposite at the oval. There are seats. Public toilets are located nearby at the oval (check opening hours).
The garden owner will be offering homemade jam and art work for sale - including greeting cards, bookmarks and paintings (framed and unframed). Cash is preferred for smaller items but digital payment will be available.
