Boutique dahlia flower farm at 154 Old South Rd, Alpine NSW, offering a genuine guided harvest-your-own-dahlias experience (morning tea, info package, snips, and a jar/vase provided to take blooms home), plus growing workshops and tuber sales; officially listed by Destination Southern Highlands tourism board. Distinct business from Southern Highlands Flower Farm in Penrose (different owner/address/site) which offers a similar dahlia-cutting experience -- not a duplicate. Visiting is by appointment/booking only; no pricing, season dates, or amenity (toilets/cafe/kid or dog policy) details were found in the sources checked, so these are left null rather than guessed.

Before you go

Bring a hat, closed shoes, water and cash or a card for what you pick. Rows can be uneven underfoot, so a pram may be harder going in wet weather. Facilities aren't confirmed for this farm — check when you call ahead.

Check before you drive
