Ask other local nurseries (who don't carry the stuff anyhow) - they will probably have a good idea. Or consider growing from seed.

The Rosarium at Mount Tomah Botamic Garden, it is outside of Sydney. Thers is also the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain within the city. Unfortunately, I didn't get to visit, although I took one of the city tour buses that went through the garden (lovely). You might also want to contact the Rose Society of New South Wales, they may have some recommendations. If you have time, do take the red and blue tour buses, they run regularly, have on-off priviliges, and are a good way to see a lot of the Sydney sites. Have a great time, that is a terrific time of year to visit!

Fawnridge, there are too many great gardens on the east coast of Oz to mention all. And apologies in advance to anybody's garden that does not get a mention here. Cairns - Wyambeel Arboretum, run by Peter Sargeant - an absolute must! An hour drive north of Cairns, in the Daintree Rainforest, near Mosman. Also a doctor named Arden Dearden in Cairns, has a huge collection of tropical plants from worldwide. Brisbane - The Olive Branch (thousands of broms) and Roma St Parklands (as Rick suggested) Gold Coast - several private brom collections. Sunshine Coast - too many to mention, but some great ones. Sydney - Mt Tomah Botanic Gardens - agree with Rick. Also the Royal Botanic gardens right on Sydney harbour - beautiful venue. Melbourne - don't know. South of Gold Coast - my humble abode! :) (about 2 hour drive from G.C.) Kathleen Henderson has a great cactus/succulent garden, an hour drive from here - I could escort you. Also, a beautiful garden 10 minutes from here, owned by my good friends Gloria and Tom Dunbar. Up the road from me is Protestors' Falls and Nightcap National Park - beautiful easy walk to the falls - fantastic rainforest canopy. Do you want to see general gardens, or specialist ones - like natives, or specific exotics? If you give me enough notice, I could line up some appointments and introductions for you - especially gardens in and around Brisbane area. I assume you will be hiring a car? You'll need one - us Aussies have to travel far to get anywhere! Hope this helps, and whets the appetite :) Cheers, Kerry
