About Garden for the Future
Welcome to the Bendigo Botanic Gardens, a cherished institution in the heart of Victoria's Greater Bendigo City. Established in 1857, this historic park holds a special place in the region's history, having appeared on a plan of the White Hills township just three years after the discovery of gold in Bendigo. Recognized for its cultural, scientific, and botanical significance, the Bendigo Botanic Gardens were included on the Victorian Heritage Register in 2001.
As you step into this enchanting garden, you'll be greeted by an enchanting mix of shade trees and lush green turf. It's no wonder that both locals and visitors alike flock to this picturesque spot. The Bendigo Botanic Gardens offer the perfect setting for family gatherings, picnics, barbecues, and celebrations, making it a beloved part of Bendigo's community.
The centerpiece of the garden is the Heritage Garden, which surrounds a tranquil billabong. Here, you'll find a range of beautifully curated display gardens and plant collections. From the charming Victorian Goldfields Cottage Garden to the vibrant Indigenous Garden, each precinct showcases unique flora and fauna. Don't miss the National Lavender Collection and National Canna Collection gardens, where you can immerse yourself in the fragrant beauty of these delightful blooms.
For the little ones, the Bendigo Botanic Garden Playspace offers endless fun and adventure. Let their imagination run wild in the Fun and Fantasy Garden, or take them on a journey through the diverse landscapes of Australia in the Around Australia Garden. And if you're lucky enough to visit during an event, make sure to catch a performance at the events stage or seek shelter in the spacious shelter for larger gatherings.
New to the Bendigo Botanic Gardens is Larni Garingilang, a vibrant precinct that bridges the gap between existing gardens and encourages a deeper connection with the landscape and the Bendigo Creek. The name, meaning "home of growth" in the language of the Dja Dja Wurrung, pays homage to the traditional owners of the land. Here, you'll find a modern cafe/restaurant/function center building, community rooms, gathering spaces, wetlands, ponds, and an impressive array of over 15,000 indigenous plants and trees.
Whether you're seeking relaxation, family time, or a chance to learn and connect with nature, a visit to the Bendigo Botanic Gardens is a must. Book a tour, explore the Bendigo Botanic Garden Master Plan, or join the Friends of Bendigo Botanic Gardens to be a part of this thriving community. Educational programs and tours can also be arranged through the City of Greater Bendigo's Tourism Centre for a nominal fee.
Come and discover the beauty, tranquility, and rich history of the Bendigo Botanic Gardens. It's a place where memories are made and nature comes alive.

Reviews of Garden for the Future
"These gardens have definitely flourished in the last couple of year's. Alot of beautiful native plants and bird's. I love the little wrens bopping about. It's nice and serene. A perfect place for a peaceful shaded or sunny picnic with many little spots to sit and enjoy the tranquillity."
"Great gardens with wonderful secluded picnic areas. So clean. Toilets great.."
"Nice plants, flowers and trees. It's under construction in areas at the present time. Can't wait to see it when they finish"
"I have found my more recent visit to the Gardens to be wonderful. All of the plants have grown so much and everything is starting to fill in and flower. The was an amazing festival on the day I was there with singing and dancing in the park. Even though covid rules apply everyone was joining in, a beautiful sight to see."
"Stunning and creative. This place has so many wide open spaces and so many varieties of plants. Wish there were more shady spots to sit in, mostly gravel paths made the area super hot."
