I'm working with Merri Creek Management Committee to revise the (now long out of print) Plants of the Merri Merri publication.

We'd like to expand on information for different garden sizes and styles, so if you'd like to brag about your Northern Melbourne indigenous pot garden, or you're having success with particular plants... Tell Me! :)

[If you're not familiar with it, in its last flowering (3rd edition, 1994!) it was an A4 format book of 120 pages. There were chapters on the Geology, Plant Communities, Original Inhabitants, Garden Planning etc. and a list of commonly available useful plants for horticulture. Here's a link to the National Library of Australia catalogue entry: http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/537250]
