Cloudehill Gardens
Cloudehill is a garden at the top of the Dandenongs in Olinda, and is internationally famous for garden rooms overflowing with flowers and magnificent artwork all year round.
Some 25 garden compartments are divided by stone walls and hedges. They include Australia’s finest summer borders, peony gardens, a spring shrub walk, bluebell woodlands, extensive bulb meadows, and a ‘green theatre’ which hosts the Summer twilight concert series.
Deep volcanic soil and moist mild weather allow plants to reach majestic proportions. The weeping Japanese maples at the heart of the garden are of serious significance. Imported from the legendary Yokohama Nursery in Japan they have been growing on the property since 1928.
The Diggers Club operates Cloudehill’s nursery and garden shop, stocking heirloom seeds and mature trees, as well as many of the plants to be found in the gardens. Seasons Restaurant provides a unique dining experience using fresh local produce. Chojo Feature Trees has also recently moved to Cloudehill and carries an extensive range of Bonsai, pre-Bonsai and accessories.
