Itchy Palms Gardens are starting to come alive now Spring is here. We have been so busy preparing for the Open Garden this December on Saturday the 14th & Sunday 15th ; from 10am till 4pm both days. We are hoping there will also be a potter on the premises this year turning clay into pots on her wheel and sell her beautiful pots just in time for Christmas. There will also be a plant stall and tea and coffee/cold drinks. Save the date. ; ) Here are three pictures of our three new Dutch Iris beds showing initial planting to full bloom. They are such a bright Spring feature that I just had to show them off. Unfortunately this beautiful display will be over by our Open Garden. And to think all these bulbs started from one small packet about 15 years ago. Below are a few other Spring pics Remember if you want to see a gardeners garden that won't disappoint; Save the date.

It's looking good at Itchy Palms Gardens with the days getting longer and warmer. Open Garden Dec 15th and 16th 10am till 4pm only. 26 Kenean Crt Mandurang. Admission $8. Children free. Sorry No dogs. See you there. Partnering with Mandurang Hall Committee helping the community.
Our one and only official Open Garden for 2018 is coming up soon in December. We have been doing all sorts of preparation and think this will be the best one yet. So many things have changed on the property since last year and even though the weather has not been favourable we are sure that anyone visiting on the 15th and 16th of December between 10am and 4pm will not be disappointed. These pictures show the construction phase of our paths in the Wedding Garden area with the canna's in their 'brown paper' state after a very frosty winter. We've shifted the grapevines from the Oriental Garden and this area is really coming together. We can't wait to show of the end result at the Open Garden. Stay tuned. Happy Digging
We have been very busy preparing for our Open Garden on Saturday and Sunday December 15 &16 from 10am till 4pm 2018. Admission will be $8 and we are raising funds for the Mandurang Hall refurbishment project. Even so there is always time to enjoy the flowers and peonies are one of my favourites. Here are a few that have been flowering in our garden recently. Yes our first open day is this weekend (16th & 17th December 2016 10am till 4pm each day) to help raise funds for the local Mandurang Hall restoration project. Just a few finishing touches to be done and hopefully the weather will be our friend. We are so happy with our progress and so exhausted but hope to see your here. There will be drinks available and some plants on sale. We have a porter loo on site and there are disabled toilets at the Mandurang Cricket club on the corner of Nankervis and Sedgwick roads. Special thanks to Bendigrow Garden and Living Centre, and Tannery Lane Sand and Soil, Tannery Lane, Strathfieldsaye Victoria. Remember be sun smart and sorry no dogs. Here are some fresh brag pictures of the gardens to inspire you. Happy Digging. Itchypalms Gardens address is 26 Kenean Court Mandurang south, Victoria :)
On 16th and 17th of December 2017 we are opening our garden to the public for the first time partnering the Mandurang Hall Committee to help raise funds for the renovation and running costs associated with maintaining the hall.
As you can see we have been very busy preparing the 2.5acre garden for the weekend of the grand opening. The weather so far has been very favourable with a recent rain of 18mm. There should be plenty of flowers out for all to see. Hope to see you all here. Happy Digging |
