Succulent Garden reviews
21 I forgot that succulents are like cactus.
The layout for this garden is beautiful here. Well designed and groomed.
This was my favourite garden out of all those inside the Botanical Garden. It is small, but it contains a lot of varieties, and they are nicely laid out.
The garden is accessible to people who have a disability.
There is good signage to the garden.
Serene and sculptural…and like the rest of the botanic gardens an absolute gem and one of Sydney’s top attractions.
Botanical Gardens in bloom this time of year nice on a sunny day or a rainy day too three cheers to all the ground staff
Great place for a walk, even better if you're a cactus enthusiast! Helped me identify one of my plants just by walking through.
This compact section of the Botanic Gardens contains a wide range of succulents from around the world. It’s a credit to the gardeners that the specimens in it, that would be more used to an arid environment, thrive in Sydney’s sub-tropical climate. Generally quiet here as it’s walled off from the rest of the Gardens so a nice spot to reflect upon things.
A really stunning garden! Beautifully designed and full of a wide array of succulents and cacti from all over the world. Absolutely recommend visiting.
So incredible. Some amazingly old and large plants and all arranged in an attractive layout- like walking through a different world. Would be a great place for a photoshoot or film.
Interesting collection of succulents. You can experience the feeling of being away from the city when visiting here. There isn't much shade if visiting on a hot day. Plenty shade in others areas of the garden though. The gardens can be a great place for contemplative thinking. So much else to do and see in the area.
This is such a fun and unusual area of the botanic gardens! I think a lot of people miss it. It's very different to the rest of the gardens but no shade on a hot day!
A good time of year to visit, with many of the exhibited species flowering or fruiting.
The Succulent Garden is a lovely little, almost self-contained part of the Gardens, spectacular in it's own unique way. It's fleshy occupants are often structurally fascinating, looking nothing like traditional 'plants' and, whether by some 'ironic hipster' design or maybe my blighted imagination, are precisely where you'd expect to find someone selling a line of 'Wild West' cowboy garden gnomes.
Take your hat and wear sunscreen, there's no shade. But you should never have expected there would be in a Succulent Garden.
In the botanical gardens Well worth an afternoon stroll and a picnic significant historical importance to both aboriginals and Europeans with commanding harbour views make a day of it and spend a couple of hours in the art gallery of nsw
Succulent here are so very nice! Nice place. Took a lot of photos here. Plants lover must go here.
Great variety of succulents (as per expected). It doesn't feel like Sydney, it's a funny feeling. The whole botanic Garden is a must see and this litlle garden is just as incredible. Easier access if you got a map on you lol
We started coming here with our 18 months old son. He loves the playground area, the fountain. It's easy to get to. Lots of shade and benches to rest for parents if need to.
Information available indicates that this Garden is on the site of Australia's first zoo. It's absolutely filled with succulent plants and cacti rockery of all shapes, sizes, tree forms or ground cover it's a marvellous spot to explore especially young children. It's well organised with species and its origins and history and beautifully terraced on raised beds to avoid accidental injuries. Perfect time is Spring as some come into flower which doesn't last long. Be prepared to wear protective clothing and plenty of suncream as this spot gets really hot. Nearby is the garden nursery where you can purchase plants and get advice especially on growing succulent at home. Absolutely worth visiting.
Incredible variety of succulents cleverly displayed with rusted steel sculpture, slate paths and red scoria mulch. Take your camera!
Beautiful! The succulent garden boasts an amazing collection. Wish they had some echeverias and haworthias, but still worth a visit for the huge cacti, agave, aloe, euphorbia, cotyledon, etc.
It is really good. I has so much beautiful flowers!
And there are so many people!
People are really nice.
The succulent garden boasts a wide variety of species from across the world. If you are a fan of succulents you will love it. If you aren't. Well you might just become one. Located within the botanical gardens it is definitely worth the visit when you are there. Amenities close by. Restraunt and cafe within walking distance. Wheelchair/pram accessible.
