September 13th & 14th
Open Weekend
Azalea Time

Eryldene, the home of the late Professor EG Waterhouse and his wife Janet, is renowned as one of the finest examples of Hardy Wilson architecture, and the garden is famous for its collection of camellias and azaleas, now at the height of their flowering season. For garden lovers in general, Eryldene exemplifies the wonderful collaboration of architect and garden lover, with its oriental-influenced buildings, including the Grecian-style Temple, and Oriental Tea House.

The garden was designed as a series of "rooms", each space carefully defined by the plantings and garden architecture, with tranquil spaces, meditation places, and "secret pathways" that children love.

Eryldene's significant collection of azaleas comes into bloom during this month, providing a unique reference of living specimens. Enjoy the gardens of Eryldene in their full Spring glory during the last open weekend for 2008. There will be an opportunity to hear from azalea experts about growing and managing azaleas in the difficult conditions in Sydney. Our garden café will be open, as well as tours of the house and garden. Open 10am- 4pm.
