Landscape designer Gordon Rowland has created an informal naturalistic garden that blends beautifully with the surrounding Wallingat Forest. Emphasis is on form, pattern and texture to harmonise with the serene lakeside setting.

Spring flowering natives; unusual local and bio-regional species will be seen along with sculptures, paved decking, a timber jetty and nesting boxes.

There will be plant sales, a book sale and the owner, Gordon Rowland will give a talk (with Q and A) at 11:00am on both days.

Garden is at 111 Tarbuck Park Rd, Pacific Palms. Open 10am-4.30pm. Entry is $8 (under 18 free).
