What’s beautiful now?
Ficus walk
Evergreen plants throughout the Garden are a delight every month. Wonder at the towering and majestic Moreton Bay Figs down Ficus Walk or along Plane Tree Drive in Botanic Park (D7 and A8-14 on the map).
Sunken Garden
Colourful succulents blooming in late winter/early spring make this secret nook a vibrant part of the Garden with scenic views over the wetlands. When summer arrives, see the Sunken Garden's waterlily-filled pond. 14 on the map.
Amazon Waterlily
Nestled between giant lily pads, see the beautiful Victoria amazonica waterlily flower in this warm glasshouse. Accompanied by Blue Nile Waterlilies, the pond and its surrounding plants are a botanical wonder of the natural world.
