Al Ru Farm – 1016 One Tree Hill Road, Sampson Flat (One Tree Hill). Inspired by visits to gardens all over the world, Ruth Irving has used vision, her artistic eye and her talent as a plants-woman to transform 10 acres of Al Ru Farm’s grazing land into a charming, charismatic country garden. The garden meanders from one area to another, each with its own distinct feel and colour palette. The expansive homestead lawn is sheltered by big old ash trees, a wisteria and rose arbour leads into the structured white wedding garden, there is a formal garden and a delightful wildly planted area where perfumed freesias and tiny white lawn daisies have been left to naturalise together with white Dutch iris and deciduous trees.
