Stokes Bay Bush Garden

　　Stokes Bay Bush Garden is located on Kangaroo Island in South Australia, just 4 kilometers from Stokes Bay. It is a garden specializing in the collection and cultivation of plants native to Kangaroo Island and Australia. Recognized as one of Australia’s most unique gardens, it is an ideal place to appreciate the island’s distinctive flora.

　　Although the park is small, spanning only 3 hectares, it is home to over 150 species of Kangaroo Island plants, including 16 locally endemic species, totaling approximately 1,000 named plant varieties. Among them, there are up to 75 species of banksias, 45 species of plane trees, and 145 species of silver birches, along with a variety of seasonal native orchids. Visitors can purchase flowers, seeds, and exquisitely crafted wooden souvenirs—perfect keepsakes. The garden is open from 10:00 to 17:00 Monday through Saturday and on public holidays (excluding Christmas), but is generally closed on Sundays. However, by prior appointment, it can also be visited from 10:00 to 17:00 on Sundays.
