Gardens have no gate

THE Australian section of Cranbourne’s Botanic Gardens is now free to enter, thanks to increased government funding.
The Victoria Government initiative means all sections of the garden are now free to enter.
“We’re really delighted that free entry will make the Australian Garden accessible to so many more people,” Chief Executive of the Royal Botanic Gardens Dr Philip Moors said.
Currently, the nine-hectare-Australian-Garden showcases a variety of flora and fauna, and is expected to double by mid-2012.
