As one of the open garden days arranged by the
Gardens of the Golden City, a visit to the lovely heritage garden of Beechwood in Hyde Park has become an annual must-do on the Johannesburg social calendar.
A lake and six ponds including an iris pond and a lotus pond. An immense
kitchen garden and an English country rose garden. Fountains and
sculptures. This garden had everything!
