Follow the tree trail at Malvern Public Gardens

Visitors to Malvern Public Gardens can now enjoy a stroll through one of Stonnington’s oldest heritage parks and learn more about some of the trees that live there.

A recently-installed Malvern Public Gardens sign highlights sixteen significant trees planted throughout the gardens, explaining the characteristics of each tree and an illustration of their flower.

The large information sign is positioned next to the central path that runs from High Street to Ascot Street, and smaller tree-specific signs are located at the base of each of the sixteen significant trees.

On a recent visit to the gardens, Cr Polly Morgan stopped to view the new sign and was impressed with what she saw.

Developed over twenty years from 1888, Malvern Public Gardens was the first public garden for the then Malvern Shire Council and is known for its curved pathways, flowerbeds, native and exotic trees, and ornamental pond and fountain.
