The first curator of the Geelong Botanic Gardens is featured as a bollard near the 19th Century Garden Gate. Daniel Bunce was a plantsman, a businessman, an adventurer and an author. To acknowledge and celebrate his contribution to the Geelong Botanic Gardens, the Friends are pleased to make available new editions of his “Manual of Practical Gardening”. Learn more about the Daniel Bunce Gardening Book.
Situated in the Eastern Gardens by the Geelong Bay, the Botanic gardens can be easily reached by car, foot and a free bus service during the summer months. There is car parking either side of the 20th Century garden by the front with space for visiting buses. Visitors to Geelong can walk the beautiful bayside promenade from the city up to the Eastern Park. Naturally the garden has been mapped by Google Maps, which you can access when you click this link.
Music in the Gardens is proudly sponsored each year by Wheeler Investment Advisors of Geelong.
