I've only highlighted a few corners of this vast parkland, primarily the water features along the parkland creek and lake, and the garden known as 'The Spectacle Garden'. There's so much more to this special place. It's a must see whenever you have the opportunity to visit Brisbane in Queensland, Australia.
I'm joining Mary at Little Red House for her Mosaic Monday meme. Make sure you pop on over there to see loads of fabulous mosaic creations from people all around the world.
What a beautiful park, the flowers and water features are beautiful. A nice relaxing place away from the hustle and bustle. Lovely mosaics, have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteYes it's a fabulous spot, Eileen. You would love the birdlife and the wildlife that makes this park their home.
DeleteLove those floating flower islands, and the "bromeliad tower" How marvelous to be able to wander through such a lovely area just a few steps away from the city.
ReplyDeleteMorning Africanaussie. Those floating flower islands and re-cycled truck tyres filled with New Guinea Impatiens. Don't they look fantastic! The Bromeliad towers are smack bang in the middle of a fantastic Bromeliad Garden. I'll be sharing more photos of that on Friday. It's such a great corner of the Parklands.
DeleteHi Bernie, That park looks fabulous, I like the floating containers along the stream. Take care and have a wonderful week:)
ReplyDeleteThose floating containers certainly are something special. They always look fabulous.
DeleteI would love to be in that park right now. It looks lovely. V
ReplyDeleteVal, I'm thinking the same thing. I wish I was down there right now. It would be another perfect day for a visit.
DeleteYour little area of the world is so beautiful!! These pictures are so pretty and exotic!
ReplyDeleteThanks Black Eyes Susan, I think we take what we have a little too much for granted.
DeleteWhat a gorgeous park! How cool that it's right there in the city, yet so pretty and peaceful with so much beauty wherever you turn.
ReplyDeleteCarol, it's amazing just how peaceful and quiet it is at the Parklands despite being smack bang in the middle of a large bustling city.
DeleteIt looks like a spectacular garden. You could get lost for days wandering among its beauties. I particularly liked that huge stand of gomphrena from the last post - wow!!
ReplyDeleteLaurrie, you could easily spend days wandering around trying to see everything. I'm always surprised by something new every time I go there.
DeleteJust a lovely garden with so many nice features. I enjoyed getting a taste of summer here.
ReplyDeleteVee, it was a lovely spot to wander around in on a summer's day, especially the rainforest section which I didn't show.
DeleteWhat a beautiful park! The gardens are so lovely. We went to Bush Gardens last month and loved the gardens and animals. I'd love to visit the Roma Street Parklands. Thanks for sharing. Blessings,

It is a beautiful place. We often go there but not recently.
ReplyDeleteBernie,
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful, must be quite a job to keep it so lush and green in the hot summer season.
