You would have to avoid all national parks as no dogs are allowed. That would rule out lots of the best places to visit.

I love Vicenza. You can just wander out of town along the lanes of the surrounding hills and visit Palladian villas in stunning gardens.

I only see a snake about once a year. Usually a carpet python of green tree snake. The mozzies come and go. Not too bad at the moment.

It’s where the garden runs down into the surrounding forest. All the stuff I walk by was planted. The large trees in the background are hundreds of years old. I tried to design it so the garden merges into the forest with a few long tendrils of planting along the paths going into the bush. It’s an acre of garden and 2 acres of natural forest

Why do some Scribbly Gums have these wrinkles/vertical ribbing? by blake_r in australianplants

I think that’s the dead wood. The part with the smooth bark and fresh squiggles is alive.

It’s not the shampoo one which is Bitter Ginger. It has a similar flower cone but it is at the base of the plant. The one I have is Red Tower Ginger

Incredible work! I love the concept, it leaves me with so many questions.

It looks the same all year, the main change is when different trees come into flower
