With spring around the corner, we've been digging through our archives and uncovered this gem from last year featuring Jack Dewhurst from the Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne visiting The Briars.
The Briars nursery is a hidden treasure on the Mornington Peninsula, home to an incredible diversity of local flora. The team here don't just grow plants for our gardens – they play a vital role in protecting biodiversity, propagating rare species from small wild populations and giving them a chance to thrive.
Jack called The Briars "an amazing organisation," praising both the quality of the stock and the knowledge of the nursery team. From species you won't find in commercial outlets to everyday favourites, their work helps keep our landscapes healthy and unique.
It's a reminder that while the Peninsula is known for its beaches and vineyards, it's also blooming with native beauty – carefully nurtured at The Briars.
