25.01.2022 Excellence in sustainable garden design Timandra Garden is closed to the public on a daily basis. But it has a permit as a Function Centre for Devonshire Teas for groups. We have a toilet available for patron use. If you want to consider a group booking, for Teas and/or a professional guided tour based on sustainable landscape design, then this can be arranged by appointment. Timandra is also available for hire for small intimate groups.... For further information, please visit www.timandrabythesea.com.au or phone Alison on 0418825625. It is a garden favoured by the touring Cruise Ship companies and has also been selected for the Open Gardens Victoria schedule during the Easter weekend, April 2020. Discounts are available for larger group bookings. As usual, we provide notice that Timandra is not suitable for wheelchairs or the infirm, for safety reasons. See more

24.01.2022 Alison Aplin Art is able to be viewed in Timandra Garden by appointment. There is no garden entry fee for this.

23.01.2022 Cruise Ship Visits David and I had 3 excellent cruise ship tours to Timandra Garden in January. Our visitors were a collection of garden lovers from different countries, who were interested in the sustainable aspects of a predominantly Australian native garden. Some of these visitors were the most interested that we have hosted in Timandra. For all this wonderful experience for David and me, and our guests, we made the sad decision to close our garden to the public after the... last cruise ship tour. We find that tourism here is misunderstood, having had many years of experience in the Clare Valley SA. To be told that the current trend is to bombard people daily with social media when research shows that this is now outdated (presumably this became highly aggravating to recipients!), shows how naive this region is with tourism. It is important to note that Timandra Garden had pre booked tours and teas with intercruises. We were selected because of the professionalism of our offering, that is, a brilliant website (now entirely different due to closure) and Ecotourism and ATAP Quality Tourism accreditation, which will now cease. Timandra Garden stood apart, as does Timandra Design & Landscaping. Timandra, the garden, is now closed. It may reopen for charity functions in the future. But David and I are enjoying our sanctuary of koalas and massed birdlife just to ourselves. Alison Aplin Timandra Garden, Narrawong Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.

16.01.2022 TIMANDRA GARDEN The body and soul expose of Timandra Design & Landscaping is shown through award winning Timandra Garden. The garden has become a favourite of international cruise ship tourists with patrons regularly stating that their garden tour and Devonshire Teas is the highlight of their trip. ... Timandra Garden embodies sustainable practice throughout. Alison, the designer, is a leader in sustainable landscapes. Globally there is a real interest in managing gardens that are more natural and less contrived.

It is the serenity and quietude that people so enjoy. And it is the majestic trees throughout that create this magical space. Come and enjoy a great community event. All garden proceeds will be for fundraising. Please note that there is a steep slope through the middle of the garden which covers over an acre. It is a garden which is full of a diversity of plants - it is a plantsman's garden. #timandra #alisonaplinart #gardendesign #sustainable #naturalgardens #cruiseships #portland #awards #design #portfairy #warrnambool #mountgambier #Easter

13.01.2022 After much deliberation, David and I have decided to manage Timandra Garden as a tourism venue by appointment only. To be retained are Ecotourism and ATAP Quality Tourism accreditation. These 2 credits provide a great insight into the quality of Timandra Garden. And Timandra is Australia's only Ecotourism accredited garden! Intimate Garden Gathering Events:...Continue reading

11.01.2022 This latest piece on paper uses mixed mixed media with collage. As yet unnamed. Framed with natural Victorian Ash. As a multi award winning garden designer with Timandra Design & Landscaping, I use my design skills also with my art. The traditional design principles, once known, can be changed with effect, with abstract art. #alisonaplinart #alisonaplin #alisonaplinartgallery #timandra #design #composition #abstract #wabisabi #bothsidesofthebrain #uniqueartwork

10.01.2022 Timandra has been accepted by Open Gardens Victoria. It will be open next April 11th and 12th (Easter Weekend) 2020. To be used as a fundraiser for the South West Regional Cancer Centre and the local Narrawong Hall. Further details will be available closer to time. It is my quest for Timandra Garden to be used as a place of learning; to highlight the need for an increased sustainability factor in all of our gardens. This will be a factor during the open days.

09.01.2022 I've started an Art Deco art range that I hope to exhibit. This piece is unnamed, but suitable for the floating effect when framed. It's A2 size on quality Arches paper.

02.01.2022 I have called this recent painting 'Imperfection'. In the true wabi sabi tradition, imperfection is earthy and natural. This organic approach that I have developed in my art, is synonymous with the sustainable and ecological approach that I use with my garden designs for Timandra Design & Landscaping and Timandra Garden. All 3 businesses are linked through earthy, organic design. 'Imperfection' the painting, is on paper, is multi media with collage and is framed with natural timber - of course! #alisonaplinart #alisonaplin #timandra #timandragarden #timandradesign&landscaping #design #composition #balance #wabisabi #abstractart #organicart
