Each one features unique characteristics: an extensive alpine rock garden with ponds and crevice beds, an expansive garden with over 2000 species including native varieties, and a display of beaded glass splendor among ponds and ornamental beds. Bring your camera and take a leisurely stroll through each. Our gracious hosts will answer questions and invite you to bring your lunch and dine among the blossoms (Carp and Fitzroy eateries too). The variety and ingenuity are worth the trip to the country for this springtime fundraiser!
