Beautiful view of Melbourne Pool from balustraded terrace running length of 1829 house. The garden drops steeply by paths and steps to a lawn with herbaceous borders and a bank of some 60 shrubs. Numerous paths lead to different areas of the garden, providing varied planting opportunities inc a bog garden, glade, shrubbery, grasses, herb and vegetable garden, rose tunnel, orchard and small woodland.

If not in her Melbourne garden, author Griselda is probably designing, judging, writing or talking about gardening.
