Walk with me to the Hobart Botanic Gardens

G'day! Today I'm going on a walk to the Botanic Gardens in Hobart, Tasmania. Want to join me?
 
 
If you keep your eyes peeled you can see some gorgeous sights, including a little cute garden gnome peeping out of bushes ;-)
One thing we enjoyed in Hobart was seeing how they recycle artworks. I wonder if it is due to living on an island with limited resources.
The stone archway below was repurposed from a civic building. Doesn't it look grand in the gardens? How would you love something like that in your own garden! I'll be next in line if they want to hand it on again.
 
The floral clock is an iconic sight in the gardens, and I always love visiting the walled veggie patch. Don't those cyclamen look gorgeous in the wild? We too often only see them in pots.
 
 
On the right is a heritage wooden fountain. Quite unusual.
Another sighting of the garden gnome!
They also have a lovely Japanese garden section which houses this waterfall.

Goodbye Hobart Botanic Gardens
(with a final wave at the lily pond).
Hopefully we will return soon!
 
 
Love,
Jazzy Jack
