CASSANDRA HAMILTON, MICHAEL PAVLOU
HOME GROWN

Sometimes it's hard to see what's right in front of us. Indeed, many Australians look to overseas locations for inspiration and adventure before thinking of travelling around the amazing continent we call home. It's similar with flowers - people often look to showy, introduced species to provide them with botanical beauty and Australian flowers are often an afterthought.

With our diverse landscape and climate, we have the flowers to match, a huge range of amazingly beautiful and rare species that many people don't know about. These flowers range from large and sculptural to small and delicate and come in every colour you can imagine. The Australian bush is often viewed as a large singular entity but look closely and you will see all sorts of magic within.
