2017 bicentennial celebrations
at Woolmers, Tasmania, and the National Rose Garden – Launceston Examiner.
- Both the Australian Heritage Register, Australian States (e.g. NSW, VIC) and the National Trust of Australia protect heritage gardens and trees, but Local Authorities normally only list and protect built properties rather than their heritage-listed gardens alone.
- Tasmanian Heritage Protection is uniquely troubling for ensuring Australian heritage protection:
-
- Because the National Trust of Tasmania has no list of registered properties available publicly, these garden listings will be news for many Tasmanian heritage enthusiasts (The Tas. National Trust even has no Wikipedia page). The Register of the Tasmanian National Trust is being built by volunteer(s) here.
- Similarly, the Tasmanian Heritage Register is constructed just of addresses, rather than with the discernible reason why a property is heritage listed (An enquirer must apply directly to the THR office for the heritage document for each address).
- The Tasmanian Heritage Register is being deliberately reduced in size, and currently over 500 Hobart locations are due for heritage removal
- Similar heritage lists include the List of historic homesteads in Australia, the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland, and The National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty in the UK.
Index of heritage and renowned Australian gardens
- Australia has a diverse range of climates, established under any of these conditions, even in desert, and barren areas, in bogs, rocks and in coastal gale.
- The vocations of the people who build these (extreme) garden landscapes are of garden designers, horticulturalists, landscape gardeners, plantsmen (or plantswomen) and their garden designs are a popular feature of contemporary culture.
- There is an extensive range of publications which feature garden designs and designers (over 5000 books just on garden design), and this popularity has led to the rise of celebrity gardeners, who use their print, radio and TV shows to bring garden designs to every household.
- A specialist Australian Garden Design Study Group has formed and actively promotes garden heritage.
- Touring Australian and overseas gardens is a notable tourist trend.
- Top Garden design trends include the proliferation of garden clubs, sustainability, waterwise, xeriscaping and the Australian plant garden, or bush garden.
These heritage gardens are noted as either, being publicly open to visitors, or (normally) more private, and open only at limited times, usually for a fee payable upon entry.
Many more notable Australian gardens are available to visit than these listed here, usually through the Open Gardens schemes. The Index to Australian Open Gardens will be a Wikipedia page too (650 gardens).
