Sunday 24th
Spring Cottage, Hamilton
Guided tour of the Gold Coast Regional Botanic Gardens. The cottage was built on land acquired from the Crown in the 1860s and the building is little changed. The land has been much reduced in size is and steep with great views of the River. The garden dates from about 1910 and old photographs show that the hard landscaping is little changed, and a few of the old plants are still alive. Society members enjoyed the ambience of the place, the modest garden in its attractive setting, the enthusiasm of the gardeners and looking at the changes that had occurred in the plants over the decades.
