Bringing back Melbourne’s volcanoAustralian Horticulture, June 2010: 43
After more than 100 years hidden from view behind fences and dense vegetation, Guilfoyle’s Volcano has undergone significant restoration work and is now back on the map at Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens. Consisting of a large reservoir built at the highest point of the Gardens, ‘the Volcano’ was the main water supply for the Gardens for about 70 years, providing gravity-fed irrigation.
