When and how should we use Australian plants in our gardens and public landscapes? Should we use them for sentiment - or for the sake of our wildlife and for living with nature according to sustainable principles? These fundamental issues are covered in this book.

Australia enjoys an astonishing range of unusual and beautiful plants. For the first time, The Australian Garden shows how Australian plants can be used in all the major gardening styles. Using Australian plants is critical to creating an 'Australian garden'. This book provides a vast array of Australian plants for designing groundcovers, features, ornamentals, infill or for almost any purpose.
