In this episode, we kick off the discussion on the suitability of eucalypts for gardens with Jeremy Francis, the creator of the internationally acclaimed Cloudehill Gardens in the ranges on Melbourne’s peri-urban fringe.

Jeremy has long been interested in the impacts of fire management and the Australian ecology and the use of fire-resistant plants, putting into practice his theories in his own garden as well as contributing to the national debate including a detailed submission to the 2009 Bushfire Royal Commission.
