Waterwise

After years of Clybucca drought, I am attuned to the plants that are waterwise - the hardy natives that survive periods of drought. They have their own special beauty. The waratah is the flower symbol of NSW and always looks gorgeous. Kangaroo paws are desert dwellers but new varieties are being developed and the colour choice is amazing. Proteas are not really native but they do particularly well among our indigenous plants.
