- Followed by Index of Garden Styles
Australia has a diverse range of climates, and here is proof that great gardens can be established under any of these conditions.
- Garden Designers, Horticulturalists, Planters and garden design are at a peak of popularity, as you will observe by the wide range of publications which feature them, some being even television stars, who bring garden designs to every household..
Many more gardens are available to visit than expected, through the Open Gardens schemes, as listed on the following page.
These gardens can be been classified by styles, which are named below and collected in the Index of Garden Styles
