I had seen photos online of the amazing Paper Daisies at Mt Annan Botanic Gardens, and had told Valerie and Sue about them, so we decide to head out for a visit to the Gardens.
The Paper Daises were certainly very impressive.
But there are more than Paper daisies at the Mt Annan Botanic Gardens. Much more!
