The Cranbourne Gardens: A Tapestry of Australian Flora | SLICE TRAVEL | FULL DOC

A south-eastern suburb of Melbourne is the site of an exceptional botanical garden, the Cranbourne Gardens. In this unique spot, biodiversity blends with the art of gardening to showcase an oceanic landscape.
The adventure started in 1995, when the landscaping firm TCL won the competition launched by the Royal Botanic Gardens of Victoria. The team took 20 years to recreate Australian panoramas, from the bush to the mangrove, in an immense sandpit. Their aim was not to copy nature, but to stimulate visitors’ imaginations: the walk takes you through stylized representations of many different environments.
The result is an astonishing botanical collection - 170,000 plants, concentrated into 25 hectares - that tells the story of the grandiose natural environment of the continent of Australia.
