Situated at the entrance to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne, The Gardens Shop sells botanical-inspired products.
Various merchandise has been developed, including bookmarks, aprons, cards and paper bags, each branded with drawings from the Royal Botanic Gardens extensive botanic archives.
A collaboration between Ernest Hillier and the Royal Botanic Gardens resulted in 'The Oaks'. The packaging was devised by David Lancashire Design, commissioning a photographer in the UK to shoot an oak tree in the northern summer. The individual acorn and leaf chocolates were produced to David Lancashire Design’s specifications.
