The Australian Garden Show Sydney celebrates design, creativity and excellence.

WELCOME TO SPRING!
Well respected artist Tracey Deep will be showcasing her beautiful floating sculpture shadow spirit in the #ausgardenshow Grand Floral Pavilion. Inspired by a recent trip to Uluru & the Olga’s, it’s a reflection of the changing light, playful shadows & dreamlike landscape. The repetitive nature of the bamboo, it’s twisting and turning, reflects the landscape and wonders of Mother Nature.

Marvel at the exquisite work of celebrated artist and sculptor Stephen Coburn as well as the delicate floral paintings of artist Janet Cullen.

In the Grand Floral Pavilion you can also see the most beautiful spring flowers in full bloom in this dedicated floral space. Learn how to make beautiful floral displays for your home for all occasions. Book into a workshop, watch demonstrations, admire wonderful floral displays by NSW TAFE floristry schools, with the centrepiece being a flower market operated by FreshFlowers.com.au
