The girls were lucky to have a gorgeous day in February to wander the gardens of Dame Elisabeth Murdoch's property at Langwarrin Judi organised the day so with champagne a plenty it is obvious the day went to plan.
In 1928 journalist and newspaper executive Keith Murdoch gave his 19-year-old bride, Elisabeth Greene, a small farm as a wedding present. Elisabeth loved the property at first sight, but Murdoch, a perfectionist, soon engaged leading design professionals to revitalise the modest weatherboard cottage and old-fashioned garden as a weekend retreat suitable for his family and for entertaining.
