Celebrity Gardener – Garry Lyon

This week’s celebrity gardener is AFL legend, Garry Lyon. Garry appears on the Nine Network as host of The Sunday Footy Show. He’s also a regular on The AFL Footy Show, and a member of Nine’s AFL commentary team as well as appearing on the Today Show each Friday. Garry told Don about his latest book, Specky Magee & The Great Footy Contest, which he co-authored with Felice Arena.

Garry, his wife Melissa and their three boys live in a beautiful Edwardian home surrounded by landscaped gardens and a tennis court. The garden, which was designed by Eugene Gilligan, has plenty of open spaces for Josh, Ben and Tom to play with their Golden Retriever, Reggie.
