Our garden is a country-style garden. The property is 5 acres with 100-year-old gum trees along 3 boundaries. We like ALL plants so the garden combines ornamental trees, roses, heucheras, hostas, maples and natives. We aim to have all year round colour so there should be something of interest whenever you visit us.
“Although the main garden designer is Sue Nyhof, everything that has been created is a joint effort between Sue and Simon.”
We are a country garden set on 5 acres.
Just 3km from The Gums is the Tarras township which has a wonderful cafe, Merino shop, petrol station and a General Store.
