Southern NSW and Canberra spring gardens put on a show
Parks and gardens across southern NSW and Canberra open for spring. They feature cherry blossoms, canola fields, and perennials.
Spring brings blooms without needing a flight to Japan. Cowra's Japanese garden is five hectares, the largest in the Southern Hemisphere.
Cherry blossoms, magnolias and azaleas bloom there in September. The Sakura Matsuri festival celebrates in late September with food and cultural shows.
Southern NSW's canola fields turn hillsides gold from August through September. View them safely from roadside stops.
