Like a secret garden, the Old Parliament House Gardens are tucked away behind a huge cypress hedge with a gate opening to a brilliant display of roses. In 1932, two hundred rose bushes were planted with some exotic trees as part of the private recreation area for Parliamentarians. This number has been added to over the years. From Spring to Autumn, you will be overwhelmed by the magnificent perfume of the roses. As well as the roses, there are ashes, maples and other shady exotic trees to picnic under.
