Big congratulations to our talented horticultural trainees! 👏

Flashback to the Royal Adelaide Show where our trainees put their plant knowledge and skills to the test, selecting the very best blooms and cuttings from across our gardens for competitive horticulture classes.

It’s a fantastic opportunity to grow their plant knowledge and connect with South Australia’s horticultural industry, and they also brought home two Grand Champion awards and Most Successful Exhibitor!

What a blooming great result! 🫶

There’s more than wisteria bringing the purple and white this spring!

Just next door in the Mediterranean Garden, 𝘌𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘴𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘹 ‘Pride of Tenerife’ is bursting with brilliant white blooms, alongside the striking purple-blue flowers of 𝘌𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘴 ‘Heronswood Blue’. A favourite of the Heliotrope Moth!

The whole Mediterranean Garden is looking spectacular right now, filled with vibrant colour, beautiful textures and plenty of spring detail.
