Dandenong Ranges Victoria
« on: October 09, 2016, 04:10:01 AM »
We have just returned from six days in Victoria, a family holiday primarily but lots of gardening related things to see in the lush, green paradise which is the Dandenong ranges. We met up with two fellow forumists, Otto and Jacqui. I spent a couple of hours with Otto having a guided tour of his wonderful garden, and took lots of photos (112 to be precise!). Here are a few of the better ones; it was quite a dark day and a little windy, difficult conditions for photography.

Jamus,

What a great privilege to visit such gardens!

Thank you for sharing the feast of photographs.

Amazed to see the Ophrys in Australia, would have thought it was a total no no.
