  • Millie is visiting a coastal property overlooking the Bass Straight to see a garden created by garden designer, horticulturist and revegetation expert Jo Ferguson. Subscribe 🔔 ab.co/GA-subscribe
    Key Features:
    One of the questions Jo and her family asked in planning the garden is ‘what will make your heart sing’. For Jo it was walking barefoot on sand, so she used gravel paths to create a coastal feel and suppress weeds.
    Seeing wind blow through ornamental grasses - and the sunshine through them - is another favourite aspect. Jo ensured there is a colourful outlook from the kitchen window.
    With sweeping views over the coast, the garden uses the borrowed landscape to create long vistas over hazy, colourful perennial borders.
    Parts of the garden are very exposed and windswept, so plants must be tough.
    Two mature olive trees are 80 years old and lend some gravitas to the newish garden - they were transplanted from South Australia.
    A curved wall built from terracotta pipes forms a sheltered area off the teenage children’s rooms, providing a haven for barbecues or just relaxing.
    There is a native grassland area featuring plume grass. “This is where my heart lies,” says Jo.
    When designing for other people, Jo tries to reflect their memories and personality.
    Featured Plants:
    COASTAL BANKSIA - Banksia integrifolia
    OLIVE - Olea europaea cv.*
    LONG-HAIR PLUME-GRASS - Dichelachne crinita
    SHOWY PODOLEPIS - Podolepis jaceoides
    PAPER DAISY - Xerochrysum ‘Lemon Monarch’
    * (Check before planting: this may be an environmental weed in your area)

    So beautiful, abundant, wild. Getting to the kernel of awe and love of plants including childhood plants. I love to feel my garden through my feet too.

    Always enjoy Millie's segments. Creating a garden that appears as though it has formed naturally into a serendipitous, magical place has my admiration. Love it.
