In a world where water and space come at a premium, the future of gardening means beauty and function must co-exist.

From the rooftop garden in the middle of Australia's largest city, to a tropical oasis in Queensland through to some of Australian's grandest old homes, Gardening Australia's Favourite Garden will inspire and delight anyone with a green thumb.

Bonus Special:
Creating a school garden featurette.

All around Australia, communities are getting inspired to create productive gardens in schools. Gardening is being seen as more than just a hobby, it's also being valued as a way to help young people establish a deep respect for the environment.

Join Josh Byrne on a journey that shows how a school community in Perth's Swan Valley established a productive, educational garden from scratch. From planning and design to the finishing touches, students, parents and teachers chip in to create a space that they call their outdoor classroom.
