Botanical Wonderland

The value of having a clear vision for whatever you wish to achieve is often touted as the most important element of success. However, when combined with creative innovation the extraordinary becomes possible. The Bazflyers would say that Frank Shipp must have been driven by such ideals when in 2005 he set out to turn his cattle property into what is now the Maleny Botanical Gardens.


Maleny is a small settlement comfortably nestled high in the coastal ranges about two hours drive north of Brisbane. Using the geographicly unique Glasshouse Mountains and surrounding rainforest as a giant backdrop, Frank has creativity applied his brand of innovation to the steep bush-clad landscape. The result is a lush oasis of waterfalls, ponds, plants and walking paths; and 16 acres of botanical wonderland. 








Frank’s remarkable achievement was definitely not lost on the Bazflyers who in a past life created their own 5 acre rural garden. Furthermore, it was truly inspiring to learn that Frank’s vision continues...he is working to make Maleny Botanical Gardens the best in the world.
