Open Gardens SA – The Heritage Garden

Roses are known for their exquisite beauty, and to see The Heritage Garden in spring when thousands of rose bushes produce countless fragrant blooms, is a very special and never-to-be-forgotten experience! Twenty-five years ago, world-renowned rosarians Walter and Kay Duncan used their expertise and vision to transform a paddock into a lovely and tranquil garden. Their charming bluestone villa was once Walter’s family home in Adelaide and was facing demolition, so they had it dismantled, transported stone by stone to the new site and rebuilt! The roses are undoubtedly the superstars, but the garden was planned to appeal throughout the seasons, and there are also many magnificent trees, shrubs, perennials, and hedges.
