On Sunday, March 7, Scott, Juliet and I headed off to the Hunter Valley Gardens, nestled in the foothills of the 
Brokenback Ranges in the heart of the Hunter vineyards (we also visited some vineyards which will be in part 2 of my blog). Spanning over 60 acres, Hunter Valley Gardens have more than 8,000 roses on display. Along the 8 kilometer walking paths are more than 6,000 trees, 1 million ground covers and 600,000 shrubs. Very impressiv
e and beautiful!

During our visit, we a

Those gardens are beautiful, especially like the horse topiaries. Thanks for sharing all the wonderful photos with us!
