Insights into the history, design and future of the National Capital’s landscaping, horticulture and reforestation will be shared, including the use of both native and exotic plant species throughout our region.
This special launch event will take place in the Margaret Whitlam Pavillion at the National Arboretum, combining fascinating discussion with breathtaking views of Canberra and the Arboretum’s living collections of rare, endangered and significant trees.
The presentation will be followed by book sales and signing.
