Geelong’s Botanical Gardens Greenhouse/Conservatory

Built in the 1960s, the Conservatory houses a collection of weird and wonderful plants from around the world. The displays change constantly, so there is always something new to see.

The ‘Mango Tree’ and the ‘Jacobean Lily’ were impressive

The Lily Pond was the centrepiece of the Conservatory

The Greenhouse/Conservatory was full of intriguing and colourful plants.

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

  3. Amazing pix and videos, dear Ivor. Takes my breath away. Having access to such marvels of nature is a great joy in life; I am fortunate to live near two famous botanical gardens … one in The Bronx and another in Brooklyn. Both are now gearing up for their holiday displays; what an enchanting time of year! Thank you for this gorgeous post, my friend. 💫🌎💛🌏💫
