1.TEMPERANCE GARDEN – CHRIS SIERS
15 Station Street, Yea 3717
15 Station Street, Yea 3717
This is the old Temperance Hall purchased 7 years ago and started with 3 trees. Chris observed the movement of the sun and shadows for six months before putting any landscaping ideas into action. I decided against lawn because of the work involved in maintaining it and over the past eight years I have created a very low maintenance studio garden.
2.MILROY – JULIE MILROY
2 Range Road, Yea
2 Range Road, Yea
Julie has been in the garden industry for many years and this experience is demonstrated in her recently reinvented garden. Visitors are greeted by a mass planting of her front verge garden providing colour and interest for visitors and those just passing by. On entering the front, a built-up garden bed has been planted with a variety of annuals and perennials many of which have been propagated by Julie. Moving into the back of the garden a stunning display of Clematis line the fence and provides a backdrop to a variety of plants, some of which are grown for propagating.
3. GARDEN WITH A VIEW – STUART AND KHIA JARVIS
11 Lawrence Place, Yea 3717
11 Lawrence Place, Yea 3717
The Jarvis Garden is situated on a 10 acre property close to the Yea and is just 5 years in the making. A series of pathways lead you around sloping terrain through a variety of developed gardens. Along the way there are several opportunities to sit and absorb the views of the rolling farmland hills. Due to the harsh southerly winds that occur frequently two larger gardens have been planted predominantly with native varieties of grasses, ground covers and lower growing shrubs. Other smaller gardens have a blend of plants from around the world. A planted avenue of deciduous trees on the lower level takes you to the gardens closer to the dam. Stuart’s design experience is evident throughout this garden.
