This wonderful book, sadly out of print, inspired the growth of hundreds of marigolds, the collection of what seemed like a million cobblers' pegs seed heads, and the planting of several banksias in the new gardens at Kalbar. The day temperatures recently hit the early 40s - definitely no time to plant anything. However weeds and seeds abound in the new estate and Judith Hallett's experimentation and wisdom have blessed me with some gorgeous silks and protein-treated cottons / linen prints.
