Open Gardens Victoria Summer/Autumn 2022
You're invited to take a rare peek into some of Victoria's most stunning private gardens — and load up on inspo — with this series of public viewing weekends.
Overview
Got a thing for gorgeous gardens? If so, you'll find yourself in horticultural heaven this month as Open Gardens Victoria unveils a fresh series of lush outdoor spaces for you to explore and swoon over.
The non-profit organisation is back with the next instalments of its signature events, which see some of Melbourne's most beautiful private gardens temporarily opened to the public. It's your chance to admire some stunning botanical sites and landscaping works, while loading up on inspiration for your own patch of turf.
February 19 and 20 is when you can wander the grounds of Cecilia's Garden in Brighton — a tranquil artist-designed space guided by Feng Shui principles — as well as Hampton's aptly titled Sanctuary, which incorporates Indigenous and drought resistant plants to create a sustainable yet sophisticated oasis.
On February 25 and 26, Portsea's historic property Delgany opens its gates for you to browse its manicured gardens, limestone castle and sweeping views. And on March 5 and 6, you can pop out to Emerald for a visit to Brookdale Farm, which sports an expansive veggie garden, loads of colourful blooms, and a clever use of recycled and repurposed materials throughout.
