Arcadia is Mine - an Artist's garden

Bears Breeches (Acanthus mollis) and arum lilies vie for attention with palms and ferns. The artist's works adorn simple garden sheds with a certain decorative flair.

 

Some gardens in the area - especially those with a good water supply may be open most of the time or seasonally.
They are generally to be found in the vicinity of the towns of Balingup, Bridgetown, Manjimup and Nannup in the SW of Western Australia.
