Edna Walling Garden, Medindie |
| Registered Name |
Edna Walling Garden |
| Significance |
This garden is significant for being the best surviving example of a South Australian garden designed by Edna Walling, an outstanding twentieth century landscape designer based in Melbourne. She designed the garden in 1939 for a new residence owned by the Michells, who had read about her work. Walling helped to popularise the informal or natural style of gardening that evolved in the Edwardian period. Her choice of plants and her design for this garden gives it a unique character in comparison to other South Australian suburban gardens of this period. (20th Century Heritage Survey, Stage Two, 2008). |
