Trevor brings The Garden Gurus to life at the Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show with an innovation-inspired feature garden.

• As part of the show’s 25th anniversary, Trevor and the team created a feature garden at MIFGS, showcasing innovations and ideas shared over the past quarter century.
• The project was delivered in collaboration with landscape designer Julian Rose from Deep Green, combining creative vision with practical garden design expertise.
• The garden highlights how modern gardening has evolved, while still celebrating the importance of collaboration and support within the industry.
• A standout feature is the innovative green wall system, demonstrating how vertical gardening can maximise space and transform small garden areas.
• The space also showcases a range of new and improved plant varieties, including Australian Plant of the Year finalists and standout releases like the Jala avocado from Flemings Nurseries.
• Designed as a working film set, the garden hosts the Legends and Legacies series, highlighting influential people and companies shaping Australian gardening.
• For those who missed MIFGS, the concept will be recreated in Perth for the Perth Garden Show, giving more audiences the chance to experience it.
