Nestled in the heart of the charming Fitzroy Gardens, you'll find a delightful Model Tudor village. This enchanting gift, a testament to remarkable generosity and goodwill, was bestowed from one country to another. Entry is free.
The building, designed in the timeless Spanish mission style, was inaugurated in March 1930. Admission is free. Within the Conservatory, visitors can marvel at captivating indoor floral displays, which are refreshed five times a year. From November to February, vibrant hydrangeas and fuchsias bloom. From February to April, begonias and gloxinias take center stage. Tropical plants and poinsettias grace the space from April to July, while cinerarias and cyclamens enchant from July to September. Finally, from September to November, the Conservatory showcases the beauty of schizanthus and calceolaria.
The Fitzroy Gardens span across 26 hectares and are situated on the south eastern edge of Melbourne's central business district in East Melbourne.
