In bloom
Blooming Melbourne
Stop by the Southern Africa Collection to see the scarlet Blood Lilies (Haemanthus coccineus) emerging from the soil like periscopes. Once flowers sprout from the underground bulbs, tongue-shaped leaves and fleshy berries follow. |
Blooming Cranbourne
Spy burnt orange flowers contrasting the silver-grey leaves of Eremophila glabra 'Murchison Magic' in Cranbourne's Future Garden. These vibrant flowers attract bees, nectar-feeding birds and butterflies and grow well in most well drained gardens. |
