A commemoration of more than two centuries of gardening in Australia, this tribute focuses on eight extraordinary women who helped establish the country's rich gardening heritage. Their challenging and sometimes tragic lives are set against the backdrop of their gardens, which provided them with sanctuary and a creative outlet during troubled times.
