The property of Adels Grove occupies an area of some 30 hectares (80 acres) and extends from Lawn Hill Creek at one end to Louie Creek at the other. It was originally gazetted in 1904 as a Miners Homestead Lease. In 1920 Albert de Lestang took up the property as an experimental Botanical Garden (hence the name “Adel” arose from Albert’s initials). Albert planted many species of trees and shrubs and supplied the Botanical Gardens of the world with the seeds produced by his nursery.

The Botanical Gardens in Brisbane still has 536 different samples of seeds sent to them by Albert, held in their collection. It is said by those locals who knew Albert that it was indeed a most beautiful botanic garden.

Albert had a building complex that incorporated living quarters, a shop, a storeroom and an office. A corrugated iron workshop was a part of that complex and he also made much use of a post and rail lean-to with paperbark roofing. Post and rail fences (all painted white) as well as hitching rails and stone lined pathways complemented the layout.

In the early 1950s a fire swept through the grove while Albert was absent (some say deliberately lit), destroying everything including his dwelling and trunk containing all of his research papers. By this time Albert de Lestang was in his early seventies and having lost his building complex, all of his written records of plants and their hybrids, his stores and a large percentage of the planted Grove he succumbed shortly thereafter to great depression and broken spirit. Albert’s last years were spent in a Charters Towers nursing home, where he died in 1959 at the age of 75, most probably broken-hearted. A very sad end to what must have been a magnificent project spanning many years and a hell of a lot of effort in an isolated and difficult environment.

The camping ground now known as Adels Grove was opened in 1984 and purchased by the current owners.

Little Tooks is a handmade online boutique based in Mount Isa, Queensland

This business was born out of a love for sewing for the little people in my life. I strive to make hard wearing, practical clothes that will last. With a focus on quality 100% Cotton suited to the harsh and hot outback climate in which I live. The clothes are made to be flexible and wearable across the seasons. I purchase limited quantities of prints and styles of fabric so that your Little Took will standout with a unique item made in very limited numbers. I also focus on making sure that the clothing and the required tags are made to limit irritation particularly for those who have sensory processing disorders

Each item of clothing is handmade with love and care by me.

I also make toys, gifts and accessories for Little Tooks and their mummas.

If you have a Little Took which doesn't fit standard size clothing then I can assist you with custom orders made to measure. I know how hard it can be to find clothes to fit children who are tall and slender and those that are more cuddly than most.

We welcome custom orders and are also available for alterations.
