My son is hoping to travel to australia from the UK on a 12 month
working holiday visa this autumn, and hopes to extend his knowledge
and expertise as a professional gardener during his stay. Although he
is qualified and experienced in the UK there will obviously be a great
many plants which will be new to him - can anyone recommend a good
book, organisation or web site preferably well illustrated that he
could study beforehand to help him recognize and learn about the more
common garden plants he might come across - I realise it's a big
country with varying climates - he's hoping to start in Melbourne.
We'd be very grateful for any pointers.
