Thank you for watching this video and all your lovely comments :-)
Dallas Kampe finished building his house in 1985. At that time the garden was bare, except for a few wattle trees growing on the property. Inspired by his love of tropical gardens and several trips to South-East Asia, Dallas began collecting plants and transforming the site into a fabulous, tropical hideaway
The huge, concrete pot sculptures are in the garden. He and his father made them using moulds. The moulds were put in position, then lined with concrete. The concrete was coloured with red oxide and reinforced with bird wire.
The biggest and most imposing structure in the garden is a large concrete dome shaped like a minaret on a mosque, which Dallas has been working on for almost 12 months. He reinforced the structure with galvanised weldmesh and decorated the sides using a mould made from a lampshade.
Dallas' well-known pink mosque-like folly has now been joined by his most recent addition - a Balinese-style temple. There are several handcrafted urns and a fabulous rocky waterfall and pond. The garden, created around a plantation-style Queenslander, includes understory plantings of colourful cordylines, crotons and large bromeliads as well as many topiary plants.
