City park · Blue Mountains — NSW
A town-center park in Bowral dating to 1911, when the local tourist association bought what was then Deadmans Paddock for public use. Better known for its spring tulip festival, its deciduous plantings still turn through the Southern Highlands' cooler April weeks.

Mount Wilson

A cool-climate village on a basalt-capped ridge in the upper Blue Mountains, its unusually rich soil supporting plane trees, elms and beeches planted by 19th-century Sydney families as a deliberate echo of European estates. Several private gardens, including Breenhold and Bebeah, open to the public on autumn festival weekends.

An 18-hectare reserve at Blackheath, the Blue Mountains' highest town at 1,065 meters, planted with rhododendrons and azaleas among native eucalypt bushland. The shrubs flower in spring, but the gardens carry brilliant autumn color through April as the surrounding bushland cools toward winter.
