The 7th Collectors' Plant Fair will be held on 16 & 17 April, 2011
9am to 4pm Saturday and 9am to 3pm Sunday
Woodgreen, 25 Powells Road, Bilpin NSW, Australia
The Collectors’ Plant Fair is held on or near the Anzac weekend. Bilpin is in the Blue Mountains, approximately 90 minutes drive west of central Sydney. The venue is a wonderful garden brimming with unusual collectable plants.
The Collectors’ Plant Fair showcases growers of special plants – growers selling plants that are not easy to come by in regular retail outlets – plants that are distinctive, unusual and collectable. Growers come from Victoria, South Australia, Queensland and all over NSW. The Fair is a must for keen gardeners whether you have an established garden, or are creating a new garden. It offers a huge range of plants suitable for coastal gardens or inland gardens – for the tropical garden, the cottage garden, country estate or balcony. It offers the opportunity to find that hard-to-get-hold of plant to add to your collection. The Nurseries attending the 2011 Fair will be announced in October 2010.
An inspirational speaker program is presented each Fair. In 2010 there was the opportunity to hear from internationally renowned plantsman, Dan Hinkley and Australian gardening identity, Trisha Dixon. The 2011 Speaker Program will be announced in October 2010
The Collectors’ Plant Fair offers off-street free parking, a plant minding service, a shuttle bus to take you and your plants to and from your vehicle and quality refreshments. It caters for individuals, minibuses and coaches.
The event provides parking for disabled people and has shuttle bus services to return people and plants to the car park and Coach pickup point. However, it must be realized the event is held on a farm with unsealed roads and paths. The ground is sloping and uneven. Wheelchair access is not easy without assistance.
