My neighbourhood has many beautiful and interesting gardens.
They range from the gardens established by the Italians and Greeks in the 1960’s which often featured various fruit trees in the front garden, particularly lemons, olives and persimmons. Aussies of that particular generation planted lawns and roses in neat garden beds.
In the 1970’s, slightly overgrown native Australian gardens were popular. The more recent arrivals have more minimalistic gardens with lots of ferns and small trimmed plants. A few have returned to planting fruits and vegetables in their front gardens.
There are not too many magnolia trees, but I found one in Audley Avenue.
