Geelong Botanical Gardens Part 2

Below.....They have made an interesting border of succulents...great idea as they are drought tolerant and will hold back the sloping soil around the path. Must try this somewhere???
Below.....Old time favourite Box Hedging never fails to please.

Below.....The formal fountain of yesteryear....no longer contains water as Geelong is on Stage 4 water restrictions....mind you the gardens didn't look at all stressed but then it is mid winter.
Below......Arrangement of raised beds in corrigated iron...I thought they looked out of place in the gardens and the design and placement of them was not good at all.
