There is one in the Geelong Royal Botanic Gardens (sorry thought there was one in the Melbourne Botanic Gardens as well, but can't find it.

Also go to the Heritage Victoria website and do a search there. There may be a historic garden nearby to you with one.

PS Found one in the Burnley Gardens. You can pretty much just jump on the train to get there. Found the reference to it here.
