This is still ranked in the top five flower shows in the world and continues to excite – it was especially nice to see our fabulous Tropicanna resplendent in the surrounds of Carlton Gardens as part of the normal planting palette.
Tropicanna continues to draw plenty of interest from gardening enthusiasts around the world and I think we sometimes forget how versatile this plant is i.e. it performs with low water conditions right through to boggy wetlands, and can be used in mass plantings in the landscape or as a feature in containers all with dramatic effect.
The images taken of the Tropicanna at the show should by all accounts not be looking their best in the Southern Hemisphere; but as no doubt you will agree they look stunning! The Show will be entering its 17th year in 2012 and is regarded as the largest and most successful horticultural event in the Southern Hemisphere.
Featuring the best landscape and floral talent that Australia has to offer alongside an extensive array of garden products this show is a celebration of Australian lifestyle and our great outdoors and I hope some of you may be inspired to visit next year. If you do, please make sure to look us up.
