When you see a garden of such beauty. You look into the person behind such a graceful garden. Then you can see the sole in their garden. This is one such garden. This gardener who created this dream has the sole of peace.

Very large area by the looks of it . That is a lot to maintain and keep up with. I admire those , like yourself , who can create a natural garden and maintain it on such a large scale. Harry

I guess that’s gardening for you. It does take a lot of work. I don’t look at like work. More of a love of the planet and the appreciation of life. Creating our own paradise to live in.

I absolutely LOVE this garden!!  As much as I admire individual plants, seeing the entire garden in context is even more breathtaking. I also love all of the colorful tropical gems. Amazingly beautiful. 🥰

It is a beautiful garden. The gardener in question had visited my garden previously about 3 months before and gave many a praise comment on my garden. When i viewed his garden we instantly had a connection. I was floored seeing it totally understanding his dream.

I could relate very well to him. He even lived on community of land the same as me. A couple of old peace loving hippy’s. Living the dream.

Beautiful garden.  One of those plants looks dangerously like miconia calvescens though.  If so, that weed could potentially choke out the garden in a few years.  If it is, you might want to warn them about that invasive plant.  According to government websites, all species of miconia are illegal in NSW and Queensland.

God bless America...

and everywhere else too.

I would not call it a garden - more like: A private piece of paradise. Absolutely beautiful!

When looking around, there always seems to be something (new) to disvover - that is what I like.

Richard, thank you for sharing!

A true Aussie piece of paradise the owner and I discussed that iam 10 years behind his garden. So fingers crossed 10 years time hopefully I will have something similar. The garden is in a slightly warmer area with a bit more rainfall near the border of nsw qld.

That is correct I visited two gardens and both gardens had the microna. With discussion as to where the seed come from. Both gardeners were aware of the weed cursing it with sour words.

Iam working on it. Trying to get the same affect you can only garden so much but time is what does it. Not just a year or two a couple of decades!

Yeah, after 30 years my demure gardens around my house have finally been looking decent. now that things are mature, grown out! It was actually the land that caught my eye when i first saw this small house come up for rent! Lots of land for to play with (and water, maintain)!
