Discover Telopea Gardens, a hidden 10-acre gem nestled between Emerald and Cockatoo in Victoria’s scenic Dandenong Ranges. Established in 1978, this evolving cut-flower garden offers panoramic views, rare plants, and informal paths winding through native and exotic flora. Highlights include ‘The Prickle Patch’, a striking two-acre cactus and succulent display, alongside vibrant proteas, waratahs, and leucadendrons. Towering oaks, maples, and birches create a rich tapestry of textures and tones, while abundant birdlife adds to the tranquil charm. Visitors can enjoy plant sales and refreshments, with proceeds partly supporting the State Emergency Service. A must-see for plant lovers and garden wanderers alike.
