Great opportunity to join us as Head of Science and Biodiversity Conservation - National Botanic Garden of Wales - environmentjob.co.uk/jobs/96… via @environmentjob @walesbotanic
I had a wonderful opportunity recently to chat to @walesbotanic Head of Interpretation and botanist extraordinaire Bruce Langridge - always happy to talk about botanic gardens!
In my latest Flowerpot #podcast I chat to the new Director of @walesbotanic Dr Lucy Sutherland.
She provides a fascinating perspective on the changing role of botanic gardens across the world

So disappointed to hear about Myrtle Rust in the Kimberley - totally support @BrettSumm that it is critical to stop further spread.

In line with the state government’s most recent health advice, we are delighted to advise that Adelaide, Mount Lofty and Wittunga Botanic Gardens will be open on Saturday 21 November and people can exercise in accordance with the State Coordinator’s directions!
Delighted the Premier and Minister have announced $3 million for Mount Lofty Botanic Garden –upgrades to this unique Garden will enhance the whole experience for visitors who spend hours exploring the thousands of weird and wonderful plants that originate from across the globe.
In another pre-budget leak, the state government has announced a further $17M for national parks with hopes to boost nature-based tourism. The opposition says more needs to be done to support the rest of the tourism industry following the cancellation of major events. #7NEWS

The hibiscus in #AdelaideBotanicGarden are looking beautiful near the Main Lake. If you live near the city, head in to immerse yourself in nature while you take your daily exercise. Please adhere to social distancing requirements and visit either solo or with one other person 🙂

The huge task of pruning the International Rose Garden has begun! It will take Kylie, pictured here, and most other members of our horticultural team days to get through, but it will lead to a stunning result come spring.
Celebrating National Volunteer Week- What an extraordinary contribution volunteers make to our Gardens.
A big THANK YOU to all of our volunteers! Over the past year, you have collectively contributed an astounding 46,000 hours to support our activities. We couldn't do it without you! #NationalVolunteerWeek #NVW2019

In memory of Australian soldiers past and present, 300 students, teachers and parents planted more than 1000 Flanders Poppies at Mount Lofty Botanic Garden this week. The cultivar is called Ladybird and is a beautiful symbol of remembrance on this centenary Armistice Day.
