Banksias

We love banksias, not only for their distinguished foliage, colourful cones and variety of form, but particularly because they bloom in winter.

Eremophilas in the garden

Eremophilas can be marvellous plants in the garden, but their reliability in a variety of soils and climates is still being established by their many devoted growers.

Foundation plants

We planted our one hectare garden in 2003 in the middle of the Milennium Drought. This meant that many plants that we wanted were not available and that some plants did not survive the lack of overhead protection, the heat and the very dry conditions.
