Bicentennial celebrations were held at Woolmers, Tasmania, and the National Rose Garden in 2017.

Heritage Registers

edit

The Australian Heritage Register, Australian states 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. The National Trust of Tasmania does not maintain a publicly available list of registered properties.

Similarly, the Tasmanian Heritage Register (THR) only lists addresses, without reasons why a property is heritage listed. An enquirer must apply directly to the THR office for the heritage document for each address. In 2016 the Tasmanian Heritage Council advertised that it intended to remove over 500 Hobart locations from the THR, although these properties would still be protected under local government schedules .[A]

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

edit
An Index of Heritage, Historic and Renowned Gardens in Australia numbers about 400 unique 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.
 
Plant growing in the Flecker Botanic Gardens, Cairns Queensland
 
Rose garden, Adelaide Botanic Garden, South Australia
  • 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).
