Her home and its splendid garden in the Sunshine Coast hinterland is a tranquil shelter from these difficult times. In NSW, we venture to Dennarque Estate, one of the foundation properties at Mount Wilson in the Blue Mountains. Its splendid gardens were designed by Charles Moore, who was the director of Sydney’s Royal Botanic Garden for 48 years.
