Thanks for the great newsletter. Mona Vale Garden Club visited Wildwood Garden yesterday - we were greeted by Wayne at the gate & Sue was in the "Aladdins" gift shop - as I would call it. The club members were looking forward to morning tea and we were not disappointed - we were surrounded by the sounds of the cicadas mingled in with bird calls. Wayne started the group off on their walk around the garden. I particularly enjoyed the waterfall, conifirs, maples and the shade in the garden. The two 10yr old girls who were with the group abandoned their electronic devices and made an adventure to find different things within the garden especially the large bird nests with huge "dinosaur eggs". The rose garden was just beautiful and overall we had a great morning. I will have to come again in Autumn to enjoy the colours in the garden... Cheryl from Mona Vale
