Great escape

Stepping into this multilayered garden is a transportive experience

Landscape architect Hugh Burnett designed this handsome circular garden for a large property on Sydney’s north shore, digging deep into his botanical knowledge to curate a selection of flora that provides visual interest within and beyond the circumference at all times of the year. Lining the pathway in are purple Mexican sage (Salvia leucantha), the foliage of a Tahitian lime tree (Citrus aurantifolia), oak-leaf hydrangea and vein-leafed Strobilanthes.
