Take a guided tour of the Geelong Botanic Gardens’ 21st Century Garden.

Designed and created in response to prolonged drought, the garden features plants which have adapted to water shortage both in Australia and around the world. The landscape is innovative and initially caused much discussion, both local and international. This unusual garden has much to teach us about adaptation to climate change.
