WildFlowers Australia Farm Visit: NSW
About
The Farm Visit: NSW will be held on the South West Slopes at the farm of Derek and Sus Bush. Derek and Sus established Bush Roses in 1984 growing predominantly roses. In 2018, an infestation of western flower thrips drove them to diversity. Five years down the track they have a sizeable planting of Australian natives grown in the field, in greenhouses, in soil and trialing some hydroponically. Peter Ollerenshaw, an expert in propagation with 20-years’ experience at the Australian National Botanic Gardens, has been an integral part of Derek and Sus’s diversification, helping them decide what to grow where. He will provide a talk on his development work with some genre of Australian Native plants for the past 30 years. Some of these varieties will be showcased during the tour.Date: 26 Sept 2024, 10am-4pm
