Proteaceae plants are well-known for their distinct and intricate floral structures that have gained popularity in summer-dry climate gardens. Mainly from Australia and South African (with some outliers in other regions), these plants have specialized pollinators and some are adapted to fire-prone ecosystems. Join us for a walk through the Garden to learn about the diverse Proteaceae plant collection at the Ruth Bancroft Garden.
