Bevis Bawa, a landscape architect and the proprietor of Brief Garden, the brother of renowned architect Jeffrey Bawa, built the landscape garden and previous residence in Beruwala, Sri Lanka. The third-largest park in Sri Lanka, also known as the Lost Lover's Flower Garden, spans 20 acres. This lovely garden is located 10 kilometers from Bentota.
When Bevis went to run the family rubber estate in 1929, he also started the garden. He cut down the cash crop tree to make room for his home and then for the array of exquisitely manicured areas that were connected by vibrant, thickly planted walkways. In 1969, when the garden first welcomed visitors, it was already well-known.

SRI LANKA: A BEAUTIFUL AND SUPERCOOL GEOFFREY BAWA GARDEN IN TROPICAL SRI LANKA The late great architect Geoffrey Bawa, famed as Sri Lanka’s ‘father of Tropical Modernism’, and elder brother Bevis grew up in a leafy suburb of Colombo during the final years of the British Empire. The Telegraph UK is carrying a tribute to both brothers, in particular the wonderful gardens they were devoted to in their later years.
