Roses on our Travels

Having lived in this area called Gippsland for only a few years we love a little drive around on a Saturday or Sunday to explore what natural or un natural for that matter, treasures we can find.


We took a drive north and near town called Toongabbie, we found a rose garden that was open to the public. Now I am very partial to a
look at somebody elses’ roses and so was delighted to find old and new favourites of this particular plant.

The town itself had this particularly quaint cricket ground with surrounding buildings and so provided an interesting visit in itself.
