Inverawe Native Gardens
Tasmania’s largest landscaped native garden is situated a 15 minute drive from Hobart, Tasmania’s capital.
Be inspired by this unique garden with its enormous collection of Australian native plants, spread over almost ten hectares that sweep down to the shoreline of North West Bay. Be overwhelmed by the colour, texture and subtle scents of this great garden.
Take tea on the terrace or just sit on one of the many seats, soak up the atmosphere of peace and serenity, watch some of Inverawe’s 88 bird species bustle about. All twelve endemic bird species have been seen here. Bring a note book and list plant species you want for your own garden. Plants are identified by name, with cultivation details. Borrow some of our landscaping ideas.
French explorers and early botanists anchored in the bay and fetched water from our river. Interpretive signs tell that story. Over 7000 native plants have gone into this eight year old garden, supplementing natural regeneration. Plants are chosen for minimum water requirements, minimum maintenance and minimum use of chemicals. Paths, rock walls, sculpture and poetry enhance your experience.
Take a self guided tour or book a guided tour at 1000 or 1400 with one of our gardeners.Tours are AUD45.00.
