Charlie visits Michael Cooke’s garden

A many-roomed botanical paradise. - by Charlie Albone
  • 29 May 2020

Charlie’s visiting a 10-acre garden in Central Mangrove, just over an hour north of Sydney, which is full to the brim with the most wonderful array of weird and wonderful plants. Plantsman and garden designer, Michael Cooke, loves to balance the symmetry and order of a landscaped garden with the beautiful unruliness of nature, and his many-roomed garden is a testament to this. Join Charlie as he takes a look around this botanical paradise.
