Pirianda Gardens - A garden to visit in Olinda, Melbourne
Pirianda Gardens are located just outside of Olinda in the Dandenong Ranges just outside Melbourne.
The gardens history commences as an orchard in the late 1890s. In the early 1900s it was used foe sheep and cattle and at this time the first plantings of ornamental trees by Thomas Crook.
After this the property was used for horse aggistment and then for growing vegetable crops.
It was in 1959 that the Ansells purchased the property and Pirianda Garden as it is now known came to life. Plants were imported, paths cleared and the gardens took shape.
The Ansells donated the garden to the state of Victoria in 1977 and it now under the management of Parks Victoria.

Olinda Falls, Victoria, Australia - A Day Trip From Melbourne for everybody (and families)
Olinda Falls in the Dandenong Ranges is about one hour's drive from Melbourne. Wonderful for a family day trip from Melbourne. The falls are a short shady walk under the cool rain forest canopy.
It is an easy 800 metre walk for families with small children. It is a beautiful green walk to the falls but, let's face it, they're not the most spectacular falls in the world. Iguazu should feel pretty safe with its mantle as one of the world's most scenic falls. Even Turpins Falls, check out last video, north of Melbourne makes this one look little more than a splash and trickle.
However as a destination for a bush walk and to get a taste of the great Aussie bush it is a day well spent. Because of its accessibility from Melbourne the lower reaches of the Dandenong Ranges National Park can overflow with visitors so just keep driving for a few minutes more to get to the Olinda Falls reserve. It won't be anywhere near as crowded and you will be rewarded with seeing some of the largest trees in the world - the mountain ash.

If you are looking for a garden to visit in Melbourne, then the George Tindale Memorial Gardens is well worth a look. These are a 2.4 hectare garden in Sherbooke in Melbourne Dandenong Ranges.
George and Ruth Tindale purchased the property in the late 1950s and set about redevelopment of the garden that was started in 1915.
It was Mr H.R Harper who set out the first paths at the top of the garden and planted the first of the exotic trees amongst the tall Mountain Ash.
Today these tree provide a riot of colour in autumn, clearly visible from the Sherbrooke Rd.
The property was again sold and then purchased by the Tindales.
George and Ruth established the network of paths, named after previous owners and friends. They planted many exotic trees and shrubs and an excellent collection of hydrangea, camellias, Lilium Giganteum and other plants.
Enjoy the Tindale for the plants spend time exploring the criss choosing paths on a leisurely stroll, perhaps take a picnic, the open lawns near the top of the garden are a great place to relax.
George passed away in the late 1970s, Mary carried on gardening until she passed away in 2006. As was Georges wish, the property was donated to the Victorian Conservation Trust and today is managed by Parks Victoria.
A friends of the Tindale Gardens group meets regularly to assist with maintenance and development of the gardens.The Friends group also conducts regular plant sales which includes many Hydrangeas, Tree Dahlias and a range of woodland plants.
