Lakeside Living Native Garden in full winter bloom
What a difference a year makes!
Lakeside Living’s First Nations Garden is in full winter bloom, filling the outdoor corridor with bursts of colour.
The garden, which was carefully designed to celebrate native plant species, has changed dramatically since its planting in winter 2023.
It is a source of great pride for the maintenance and engineering staff behind its creation, Chad Eastwood and Adam Dunstan (pictured).
“It’s just amazing to look at photos from one year ago and appreciate how far it’s come,” Acting Maintenance Lead Hand Chad said.
“A lot of thought and effort went into the landscaping design and sourcing native seedlings, so its really rewarding to see the fruits of everyone’s labour.”
Other than a few prolific grasses that need taming, the native selection is very low maintenance.
“We really don’t have to do much, other than walk past and appreciate it,” Chad said.
The garden design is symbolic living art, depicting the connections created through the five Grampians Health sites.
The community is welcome to visit the site, created to facilitate the ongoing journey towards reconciliation and cultural appreciation.
