Canberra International Arboretum and Gardens on ABC1

Post by Bretts »

Just got this email from the Canberra club
Grant Bowie has foreshadowed that there is to be an item on the Canberra International Arboretum and Gardens on ABC1 Gardening 6.30 pm this Saturday. Replayed Sunday at 1.00 pm on ABC1
Now all I need is someone to remind me to watch it.

they did show the Canberra International Arboretum. pluss show endangered species they had planted and the water system.
Grant Bowie showed some slides on saturday of where the Canberra International Arboretum bonsai section was and where the new one was going to be. it all looked quiet impresive.
