Urban Gardens within Melbourne

Community gardens are so big nower days, so I would like to know where people think are the best urban gardens in the city?

I know of Rushall Garden in North Fitzroy and Veg out in St Kilda.

I know of the Pop Up Patch at Fed Square where you can hire your own veggie crate for $25 a week, incl tools and seasonal seeds http://littleveggiepatchco.com.au/pages/pop-up-patch. It also holds fun gardening workshops for kids and big kids.

Another great one is Sunnyfields Community Garden at 540 High Street, Northcote https://www.facebook.com/SunnyfieldsCommunityGarden.

There's a small community garden project at 486 Cecil Street, Fitzroy http://www.3000acres.org/sites/1-cecil-st-collingwood and another one with 4 community boxes at 5 Condell St, Fitzroy, http://www.3000acres.org/sites/5-condell-st-fitzroy.
