Celebrate 60 Years of the WA Botanic Garden

2025 marks the diamond anniversary of the Western Australian Botanic Garden, the centrepiece of Perth’s iconic Kings Park.

No anniversary would be complete without flowers — and to honour this milestone, Kings Park has unveiled the exquisite White Diamond waxflower.

Join us for an intimate conversation with special guest Digby Growns, Kings Park’s Senior Plant Breeder, who will share the story behind this remarkable release and provide insights into the cutting-edge plant developments shaping the future of native gardens and the cut flower industry.

Adding to the conversation, Rebecca Const from Fox & Rabbit will share her perspective as one of Perth’s most creative floral designers. Rebecca will explore how science, sustainability, and artistry intersect, and how new native cultivars like the White Diamond waxflower are influencing modern floristry.

With Digby’s 30 years of horticultural innovation — spanning more than 50 decorative and sustainable native plant varieties — and Rebecca’s unique artistry, this talk promises to be both inspiring and thought-provoking.

Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from two of Perth’s leading voices in plants and floristry.

This event is part of the Everlasting Kings Park Festival 2025.
