Hi everyone,

We've had some messages from people wondering what is happening with our old website..

We experienced some AI hacking on the old .com.au website and are now in the process of moving our site to hillviewrareplants.com

The site should be up and running by the end of the day, with a new piece by Susan Jarick added to the site soon after!

Merry Christmas!

This collection covers a wide sweep of subjects: the trials and joys of navigating the less travelled roads in search of particular plants, pondering historical byways, reflective musings on Greek and Turkish life, horticultural essays on the delights of his favourite bulb genera, and a tribute to his friendship with renowned Tasmanian plantswoman, Essie Huxley.

Friday the 2nd of December 5:30pm at The Hobart Bookshop
Doors open at 5:15pm. Tickets are available on our website or through the link in our bio. See our website for more details
