The Yarra Valley Plant Fair & Garden Expo: a great place to find rare plants!

This week on The Horti-Culturalists we head out to the beautiful Yarra Valley to visit the Plant & Garden Expo there which features a collection of rare plant growers selling their plants, giving free advice and generally giving you the opportunity to collect plants you just won't find anywhere else! We talk to some of the growers about their specialties and why these sorts of fairs are so important, and some visitors to find out what made them visit the plant fair! We also bump into some old friends that we've made videos with - always a delight! There are similar rare plant fairs all over the world so where ever you are, ask around to find one near you and go along! Many thanks to the Yarra Valley Plant Fair & Garden Expo for having us, and to the stall holders visitors who were happy to chat!
