    Love your content! Seeing the various gardens that you film is fantastic and opens my imagination. I’ve seen entryways lined with sycamores; beautiful!

    Pin oaks make the most beautiful avenues. A stroll through the streets of Toorak will convince anyone of this. Liquidambars are also popular choices for avenues there but tend to be less visually appealing due to the greater natural variability of the species.

    Hummm. I found this interesting but I did not particularly like any of these avenues. The most visually pleasing was the Pin Oaks. I dobhiwevervlike the streets of Grafton when the Jacaranda are in bloom.

      I love the avenue at Cruden Farm, I was lucky enough to visit there a few years ago when Dame Elizabeth had a big event and my partner was playing there in a jazz band.
      Her garden was amazing and she has some beautiful roses and perennials as well. But my favourite avenue is Honour Ave at Macedon. 🌳

    There’s an avenue in central Oahu called Royal Palm Drive, which makes the humble environ feel absolutely majestic. Love it!

    What a glorious avenue, the lemon eucalyptus make. I have about 500 ft of driveway that curves towards the house after a long straight. I was considering pin oak or dogwood. But in a recent video you shared an upright oak that is evergreen. That caught my eye. Thank you for sharing.

    Have you heard of the Seven Sons tree? I wonder if it's habit would be too sprawling. It is heavenly with it's blooms and colaxes

      It is a lovely large deciduous shrub and mine is about 5metres tall by 3metres wide. Heptacodium miconioidesih the botanic name. Regards Stephen

    There's a home near us here in Central Victoria that has the most beautiful Linden avenue and the fragrance when they flower is just amazing. It's on one of my favourite walking routes any time of the year.

    As a non Austyralian viewer I loved seeing the Eucalyptus avenue, and all the information on the Gums, I have a passion for exotics here, which means I love Australian plants, I've been wanting to plant more Eucalypts on my family farm, but almost all old Eucalyptus have fallen over the years, and I'm still nervous to plant more 😅

    At a rural fete in Zimbabwe one stallholder covered the ground with lemon-scented gum leaves. The sun and the shopper-treading released their wonderful fragrance all day. Afterwards I scooped up a few leaves and left them in my car - the free lemon pot pourri lasted for weeks.
