What a weekend at the Queensland Garden Show last Saturday and Sunday! I was up early on Saturday morning and got a lift to Nambour Showgrounds with Sophie Thomson and Claire Bickle. We had a great yarn, and they told me how the opening day at the show was just packed with people - one of the busiest days that they have ever had. This really makes me happy because events like this are so important to everything we do in terms of our industry and the story that we share, day in and day out, connecting to nature through plants.

This week, we celebrate Australia’s passionate plant people. From backyard collectors and market farmers to garden designers and expert propagators, these are just some of the country’s most inspiring horticultural connoisseurs!
