The Garden City

The Garden City

For 90 years the Horticultural Society of Canberra has been there to inspire, educate—and sometimes console—Canberra gardeners and their backyard efforts.

This display highlights the work of the Society, from planning the National Rose Garden and holding flower shows to the production of the much loved and often-thumbed ‘Canberra Gardener’ book. Now in its tenth edition, each volume has evolved to reflect the changings trends in the city and a greater understanding of our local environment. Complemented by works from the CMAG collection celebrating gardens and the beauty of nature, this exhibition will delight green and not-so-green thumbs alike.
