Tasmanian Gardens

Tasmania has the perfect growing conditions for ornamental gardens

we have good rainfalls in many districts

fantastic seasonal differences

and if you are lucky good soils (ohhh my kingdom for some red basalt !)

Callington Mill Gardens & Heritage Orchard at Oatlands

Given all of these factors Tasmania has some brilliant

Open Gardens, public and private as well as the many wonderful regional Garden Clubs

Yet we don't really do them justice as far as promoting them

Given the current demise of industry in Tasmania,

shouldn't we be trying harder for the Horticulture Industry in this State ?

After traveling in the UK and Western Europe and seeing the

visitation to open gardens, and the promotion of the Garden industries

we really are missing the boat here

Red Dragon Nursery at Underwood

 Of course there are "associations" you can pay to join as a Garden/Nursery

and you gain their promotional advantage (sometimes)

but there are so many more Gardens out there that

can't afford the high membership fees

BUT COME ON FOLKS
SOCIAL MEDIA IS FREE !

So I've started a PINTEREST Board on Tasmanian Gardens

Can you help me with more links ?
