The gorgeous Australian bush comes to the Fair

Updated: Apr 12, 2023

Autumn is a wonderful time for admiring banksia blossoms and planting natives. Whether you are growing a bush garden, into bush regeneration, bush tucker, or planting a wildflower meadow or collecting unusual species, there is something for everyone.


From local indigenous plants, to flowering wildflower meadows, to tiny tubestock for regeneration projects to the towering Wollemi Pine, we are lucky to have these exemplary Australian plant growers coming to the Fair. The weekend is perfect for chatting to the experts.





Our specialist growers are experts in their field and a wealth of information:
