The Wattletree Garden


  • 200 Wattletree Road Hurstbridge, VIC, 3099 Australia (map)

The Bushland garden meanders through ironbark gums with dry plantings and metal sculptures to add visual appeal.

The vegetable garden is enclosed by a stand alone fence of interest to the DIY enthusiasts.

Wander over the Monet bridge towards the house and you will find places to rest and contemplate perennial plantings and chooks.

Two dams afford habitat for little tortoises and lotus flowers.

Highlights include a lovely, flowering Wisteria, a Muehlenbeckia hedge that was built on strawbale and Redlove Apple trees.

Garden owner Melissa, is an award winning sculptor in mild steel, stainless steel and glass. You may have seen some of her work at The Melbourne Flower and Garden Show over the years. Her metalwork will be for sale at this opening. Check out her Website, Instagram and Facebook.

The Wattletree Garden is located on the lands of the Wurundjeri People. Open Gardens Victoria wish to acknowledge the Traditional custodians of this land and we pay respect to their Elders, past, present and emerging.
