Statement of Significance
Contribution to landscape of historic garden
Particularly old
Outstanding size
This representative of an indigenous species is in the lawn to the North-West of George Kerferd Hotel at Mayday Hills.
Mayday Hills Hospital was developed as the Beechworth Lunatic Asylum in 1864-67 with gardens and grounds laid out at this time and rejuvenated since 1913.
The collection of mature trees and plants is exceptional with many dating from the mid to late nineteenth century and others from the post 1913 work of Hugh Linaker and later curators. The efforts of grounds staff over the decades has created a succession plan that extends beyond the lifespan of the 19th century plantings.
It has become one of the top 5 collections of trees in Victoria (John Hawker)
