02:23(ENCHANTING MUSIC)
02:25Every year, tourists and locals alike
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined51
undefined:undefined52
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof the absolute highlights.
02:41My guide is curator
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined56
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedConservatory.
03:00It was unveiled in September 2015.
03:03Its design used Licuala ramsayi
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined62
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedIt's beautiful, isn't it, Jerry?
03:47Yeah, this is Pentagonia wendlandii.
03:50It's a rainforest understorey tree
03:51from Colombia and Ecuador
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined78
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedgrowing in baskets?
04:14Yeah, interesting question, Jerry.
04:15They're growing in baskets because
04:17they're one of the very few
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined88
undefined:undefined89
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto see the like of these?
04:29A long way, I think.
04:30These are the only ones I'm aware of
04:31that are on public display
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined95
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI have no idea what they are,
04:45but they're all looking
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined99
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthey just explode all year round.
04:54(LAUGHS)
04:55I don't know all of them myself.
04:57It's not a group
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined105
undefined:undefined106
undefined:undefined107
undefined:undefined108
undefined:undefined109
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedBut they grow really fast.
05:13I think every office should have one.
05:14As long as you've got a big office.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined114
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwe wanted to imitate
05:35the environment in cloud forests
05:36and rainforests
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined123
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda difference in the plants?
05:49Do they enjoy it as much as I do?
05:51Yeah, absolutely. They love it.
05:52We're finding that
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined131
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto around 50-odd species.
06:09They're bizarre,
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined137
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof all, the titan arum,
06:22Amorphophalllus titanum,
06:24has this reputation
06:26for smelling like a dead animal.
06:28Now, I can smell various odours here.
06:31This one down here
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined145
undefined:undefined146
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedare carrion flies,
06:44and they are very sensitive
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined150
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat flies a long way,
06:57they're able to effect pollination
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined155
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedare actually very small on these.
07:09And at the right time
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined161
undefined:undefined162
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedseen anything like this.
07:31Nor have we, to be honest.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400

undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined(LAUGHS)
07:45This eclectic collection
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined177
undefined:undefined178
undefined:undefined179
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit likes the tropics,
08:10but it's also reasonably hardy,
08:12so you can grow it with a little bit
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined186
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfavourites in this garden.
08:26But this one would be
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined191
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit comes from a different planet.
08:39It does. It looks like a baobab.
08:41It's almost like a tree,
08:42with its fat trunk
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined197
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfrom the surface of the cliffs
08:53and then its branches
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined202
undefined:undefined203
undefined:undefined204
undefined:undefined205
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto make things a bit different,
09:32trying to improve beds
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined211
undefined:undefined212
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand it's a must-see destination.
09:43Thanks, and it's all due to
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined216
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat a lot of people try and achieve.
10:08It's that perfect combination
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined223
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmost of us don't have it.
10:21We garden with
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined227
undefined:undefined228
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedhas its attributes.
10:37And if you can get to know them, you
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined232
undefined:undefined233
undefined:undefined234
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand concentrate pollutants
11:00and stop us from breathing it in.
11:03Studies have shown
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined243
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedall year round.
11:32So get planting
11:34and help you and your neighbours
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined258
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedas well as being edible.
11:50It's a blueberry.
11:52And it's a beauty because it has
11:53these lovely
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined266
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinededible hedge.
12:17Becoming a gardener
12:19is a bit like being given a key
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined272
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedmany of these in your own backyard.
12:38Millie's keen to learn more
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined278
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedafter fire
13:04are those mass flowering events
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined285
undefined:undefined286
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedchemicals contained in smoke
13:27to identify
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined291
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis make a small fire.
13:52And you can do it
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined301
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI need to get ready
14:09to capture those chemicals
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined306
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthis dust extraction bucket
14:20which I've half filled with water.
14:22And then I use a piece of hose
14:25which will run right through
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined312
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineduse it to capture the smoke.
14:40I'm just going to carefully sit that
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined319
undefined:undefined320
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedfor between 30 minutes and an hour.
15:03All this while the vermiculite
15:04is also absorbing the smoke
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined327
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedpassed through the water.
15:20This is quite cool to touch.
15:24Now I'm just gonna take these
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined333
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedis the vermiculite.
15:38I'm gonna mix a small amount
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined337
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsome seed on top.
15:52(GENTLE GUITAR MUSIC)
15:55A little bit more vermiculite.
15:57That just sort of allows light in.
16:00Holds that seed in place,
16:03keeping it moist.
16:08I've mixed a little bit of
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined346
undefined:undefined347
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsome amazing regenerative properties,
16:26and particularly for those plants
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined352
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedby the size of space that we have.
16:55But Jane's found
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined357
undefined:undefined358
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyou can't think big.
17:17And that's exactly what's happening
17:19in a tiny courtyard garden
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined363
undefined:undefined364
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedof living in a smaller space.
17:38Yes, I...
17:39The proximity of the plants
17:41means that you actually are
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined370
undefined:undefined371
undefined:undefined372
undefined:undefined373
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto use them in another way
18:02to try and create
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined378
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda separate decking area
18:17but I also wanted to have
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined382
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedas well.
18:32I wanted it to be thick and dense.
18:34Also, I wanted to block
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined387
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthat have been freed up
18:44and are growing up,
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined393
undefined:undefined394
undefined:undefined395
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedone of the features.
19:01I just love that dissection.
19:03It's so beautiful.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined400
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedAnd it's just gorgeous.
19:13(GENTLE GUITAR MUSIC)
19:22This is such a nice little nook.
19:23And I really think
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined406
undefined:undefined407
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedcreated this little area
19:40because it's not just a seating area,
19:42it's your clothesline!
19:43It is. It's a fixed object.
19:45I couldn't hang it anywhere else,
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined415
undefined:undefined416
undefined:undefined417
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedI wouldn't want the weight of it
20:04pulling down
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined425
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwhere to start.
20:30But Jenny went from bland
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined430
undefined:undefined431
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedtiny though it is,
20:43it's got sort of a self-contained...
20:45Yes. Yeah.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined436
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand see the plants.
20:52And hopefully when these grow up
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined440
undefined:undefined441
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedin pots
21:08hanging on a frame on the side fence.
21:11This is such a narrow space, isn't
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined446
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedas well.
21:26Well, it's a whole green wall
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined450
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedit helps you to blend plants in.
21:42Yeah.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined457
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedAnd this is a treat.
21:51Isn't it gorgeous?
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined462
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda mass of flowers.
22:00Yes.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined466
undefined:undefined467
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedinto the house.
22:12(ENCHANTING MUSIC)
22:20Another, Jenny calls the bayou
22:22because of the old man's beard
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined473
undefined:undefined474
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedIt just manages itself, really.
22:39And if you run over the pavers, just
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined479
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda little bit loose
22:51because it's got
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined483

undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedlots of fruits and veggies growing.

46:50Garlic chives

undefined:undefined911
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedsort of just hanging about,
47:01just because we didn't know
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined916
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto then grow and spread.
47:19It doesn't look

47:44and Mum loves to use it

undefined:undefined930
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedthen they're a bit more flexible,
47:56so then you know
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined934
undefined:undefined935
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedto just let it pickle away.
48:09For how long?
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined940
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedbut she cooks it with oyster sauce
48:18so there's a little bit
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined946
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineda piece of land and plant bamboo.
48:40They wanted to harvest
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined950
undefined:undefined951
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedand do something with it.
48:54The bamboo farm is in Peats Ridge.
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400

undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedwrite about it for my honours thesis.
49:13What I personally love about bamboo

49:29This is Dendrocalamus latiflorus.
49:31It's also known as sweet bamboo

undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined968
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefinedyes, definitely go for it.

50:04And if you go all the way
undefined:undefined00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,400
undefined:undefined978
undefined:undefined
undefined:undefineddo that for you now.
50:25And then that gives you

undefined:undefinedinto horticulture,
50:42but it hasn't made me stay there.
