The devastating impact of our state’s bushfires, followed by the COVID-19 pandemic soon after – has required us to change and adapt. With this in mind, the role of botanic gardens has arguably never been more important – our scientific expertise and our horticultural curation of living collections and creation of special places has been greatly valued by many.
