The Ballarat Botanical Gardens is one of Australia's most significant cool climate gardens. It contains a remarkable collection of mature trees and marble statues set among colourful bedding displays. The Statuary Pavilion houses Ballarat's finest collection of marble statuary, the result of the Thompson Bequest. Charles Summer's Flight from Pompeii is an elegant reminder of Ballarat's wealth of the 1880s.   Two major floral bedding displays are created each year by the planting of over 80 000 seedlings. The displays are timed to be at their peak in March and October.
