Colours on show at the Botanic Gardens

Autumn can be a special time in any garden, with colours varying in preparation for winter’s onset.

But at Noosa Botanic Gardens, the array of colours is even more spectacular.

So why not take a guided walk in the park, courtesy of the Friends of Botanic Gardens, where you can find out about swamp cypresses from the US Deep South, or the elusive flowers of the elephant apple – and with recent rains, lots of fungi may be appearing to add extra lustre to the scenery.

Your Friend-ly guide will spend an hour taking you through the various locations of the gardens in what will be a pleasant and uplifting experience for anyone with even the mildest of green thumbs.

And you can bring your dog along – but only on a leash!

This Autumn Seasonal Guided Walk is on Sunday May 16 from 8am to 9am.

Meet at the main shelter, adjacent to the lower and middle car parks, and bring: sensible shoes, ha, sunscreen and insect repellent.

Oh and don’t forget your camera!

Noosa Botanic Gardens are on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy.
