ie., Roe Gardens
or use short url below
AboutThe Gardens' name celebrates Western Australia's first surveyor-general, John Septimus Roe, whose memorial bears a bronze plate depicting one of his earliest maps of Perth - showing very few streets, and many more lakes than what exists today. Built in 1956 and constructed of hewn granite in hexagonal form, it was named after John Septimus Roe; who was responsible for surveying and apportioning the land in Perth. This venue remains a hidden treasure at the end of the State Botanic Garden. A tranquil and shady setting, it features the Roe memorial which bears a bronze plate depicting one of the earliest maps of Perth. It is an ideal location to see sand plain species, to explore the Grevillea and Hakea Garden and marvel at north-western flora. After a rest on Drummond's Seat - a huge, semi-circular granite bench named after James Drummond, Western Australia's first Government Botanist - you can return to the carpark via the Place of Reflection, a tranquil location for quiet contemplation among plantings of eastern Australian species. Given the elevation, Roe Gardens' other magnet is the view, which you can enjoy while lounging on the gently sloping lawns. With the Narrows Bridge as its focus, it's a river and city panorama to absorb at leisure - and at night the lights are magical. This gently sloping site offers tranquil, shady grassed areas with spectacular views and the stunning Place of Reflection. Due to the unique nature of this venue, special conditions apply.
