Kurt Wilkinson, Horticulturalist & Garden Designer, South Australia - 12 February 2025

“Yalamurra, Growth Through Persistence” Kurt Wilkinson is an Adelaide-based horticulturalist known for his innovative approach to garden design, specializing in creating resilient and creative gardens suited to the dry, Mediterranean climate of South Australia. With years of experience in formal garden maintenance, Kurt has honed his expertise in developing landscapes that thrive in challenging environments. His passion lies in transforming outdoor spaces into sustainable and visually striking gardens, tailored to the unique conditions of Adelaide's hot, arid terrain. Kurt’s designs blend functionality with beauty, making them a perfect fit for the region. His garden "Yalamurra" lies to the north of the greater Adelaide area. After many years of experimentation and setbacks, the garden has emerged resilient and capable of withstanding considerable stresses. The plants are chosen for their varied contrasting textures, colours and growth habits, enabling a dynamic seasonal display. The diversity of the plants ensures that there is always something to admire - whether it's the bold structure of succulents or formal elements, the graceful sway of grasses, or the interesting foliage of shrubbery. “Yalamurra” , once a patchwork of trial and error, is now a truly unique and sustainable example of nature coexisting with the challenges of the land. Kurt takes us through this challenging garden journey with valuable lessons for all participants.
