18.01.2022 Seven native plants you should know and consider planting... We have more than 15,000 native Australian plants including the some of the world's most fascinating. They're an essential part of local ecosystems and support our native birds and insects. https://ab.co/32ecrNN

17.01.2022 Day ? I'm not sure anymore! - plants almost in except for water plants in the pond. Had great fun today playing with the rock fall. Ticking off a few new firsts with this garden. Excited to show you all! And for some slightly cooler weather ahead....

17.01.2022 MIFGS madness has begun! When my backyard becomes a depot for the month before I get to showcase these beauties and more! #mifgs2020 #antiqueperennials #blackligulariawhoknew #landscapedesignmelbourne

15.01.2022 So delicate! The beautiful native lily, Arthropodium strictum, or Chocolate Lily. This one is in a pot, but Ill be adding these as a mass planting to my front yard renos! #australiannative #australiannativegardens #nativelandscapedesign

14.01.2022 Finally back on the tools with this lovely plant out of 8 foot square full sun to full shade garden bed. Its been a rough few months with my sons health so a huge thank you to my clients for their patience. Ill be up to full speed soon with some exciting things ahead in 2020. Stay tuned! #gardeningismytherapy

13.01.2022 Very happy I managed to finish this installation today (this is but the smallest of one of three terrace spaces). Sad to announce that installations and maintenance is suspended for the next 6 weeks. Extremely grateful for government support of small business and my wonderfully supportive partner and clients! Still available for remote garden support and consultations. Email me at [email protected] for details! #workisntworkwhenyoulovewhatyoudo... #smallgardenspaces #melbournegardendesigner #staysafemelbourne #seeyouinthespring See more

Thank you to all who contributed, visited, and made this experience a rewarding one. I can't believe I have to pull this garden apart tonight! Maybe I could come and install it in your garden?!?

09.01.2022 Finding inspiration at Heronswood...

09.01.2022 Garden with a view

09.01.2022 Deeply disappointed at the cancellation of MIFGS2020 but also incredibly grateful to IMG and NGIV for taking responsible action to protect the public, especially immuno suppressed people like my son. Heres a little shot at what was to be my collaboration for this year and hoping Im lucky enough to be given the opportunity to participate in next years show. My heart goes out to all the exhibitors. There is so much effort and pre-planning put into events like this. Please support our local nurseries, growers and landscape suppliers. They really are all fabulous.

09.01.2022 How PEAutiful is this little beauty! Kennedia macrophylla. A Western Australian native, apparently rare, I picked this gorgeous one up from Bulleen Art and Garden and it’s now climbing gloriously up my west facing backyard fence. #australiannativeplants #wanatives #australiannativepeas #melbournelandscapedesigner

08.01.2022 MIFGS2020.... #watchthisspace #mifgs #landscapedesigner #melbournegardendesigner #thirdyearinarow @ Carlton Gardens

07.01.2022 Here’s one I’ve been working on recently... from grey to grand, this lot will be blooming beautiful in no time at all! #gardendesign #melbournegardendesign #smallgardens

02.01.2022 Scaevola 'Bondi White' commonly called Fan Flower. A much admired plant in my show garden at #mifgs2019 Even the bees can't get enough! #emergentgardens #nativeplantgarden #australiannativeflora ... #australiangarden See more

02.01.2022 It's SHOWTIME! The Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show opened this morning, and I'm already delighted to be talking to people about my design philosophy and techniques and sharing great ideas for Australian gardens. I'd love to talk to you and your friends about this stuff too, so I'm giving away a pair of passes to the show! To enter, tag a friend who's thinking of renovating an outdoor space, or planning their next garden project, large or small. The winner can attend #MIFGS as a guest of Elly Plants, and get some one on one time with Elly to talk through their concept. #emergentgardens #mifgs2019 #australiangarden
