Yawning Man Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) hey all I watched this today, a very impressive collection indeed.

strangebrew Posted March 9, 2008 Weird that the ABC story didn't even mention where the garden was located especially since it's run as a tourist trap. It's Australia's biggest cactus garden apparently. Anyway it's in a place called Strathmerton in upper Victoria near Echuca. http://www.cactuscountry.com.au/index.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lachy Posted March 12, 2008 I taped the episode... I was drooling over all the beds of flowering Echinopsis. Whilst it's a nice pipe dream to imagine growing something like that myself... it just ain't gonna happen. Still, very inspirational anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
