Okay this post is going to be long because me and botanical gardens = too many plant photos.
Let the visual feast begin!
Let the visual feast begin!
They allow for pets on leads at the Maleny Botanical Gardens well officially dogs but I'm sure that can be interpreted to mean any pet on a leash :) You can also spy Ben carrying Gremlin's pet backpack - it was here we realised he could open the velcro closure :P
Despite it being Winter there was still a lot of plants and flowers (yay!) to see. Admission to Maleny Botanical Gardens costs $16 an adult which was probably $10 to much (though it will depend on how much you love gardens). You can also buy a ticket for $26 which includes a visit to their aviary but us cheapskates just went the botanical route :P Despite the high-ish entry cost, it was still a fun hour and I imagine if you bought a picnic you could even stretch it out to two!
