Landscaped Gardens Of Australia – The Uniqueness And The Beauty!

Most gardeners in Australia are of the opinion that the country’s landscaped gardens are modeled on the lines of those in Japan and England. However, many plants that are indigenous to Australia, help make its landscaped gardens stand out. The ones that are explained here are only some of the numerous Australian species that gardeners can use for their requirements.


The Australian Botanical Gardens or the Department of the Environment and Heritage, run by the Government of Australia, can provide you with the necessary information on landscaped gardens in Australia.


The well-known genus Acacia forms an indispensable part of the landscaped gardens of Australia since amongst its many species, the famed Golden Wattle, is the national floral insignia of Australia.


There is even a Wattle Day celebrated annually on September 1 by the Australians. In fact, there are around a thousand known species of Acacia to be found in Australia and these are spectacular as garden plants. The flowers of the Acacia plant are organized in either cylindrical spears or bulbous heads. Based on the concerned species, the plants can have a small number of flowers, maybe 2-3 distinct ones or they can have up to 130 flowers. The plants bloom all through the year. Pruning them as often as possible will ensure the longevity of these plants.


Leptospermum, which are generally called tea trees, too, are widely prevalent in the landscaped gardens of Australia. They have gotten their name as the earliest settlers of Australia used the leaves of this plant as a tea substitute. Totally, there are around 83 species.


These tea trees make first-rate garden plants. They tend to have a snug, dense growth, and make attractive screen plants. In addition, they are strong, resilient plants that can flourish in almost any kind of soil.
