Love Your Nature

Plant-love has been happening since the dawn of time. Over eons, they’ve been reproducing with themselves, with other plants... and with the help of water, wind, fungi, insects, and other animals.

This year’s exhibition celebrates all kinds of plant-love. From prehistoric plants that use clones, spores and seeds to reproduce, to flowering plants that employ colours, shapes and scents to attract animals, and humans matchmaking for bigger fruit, brighter flowers and to protect wild plants for the future.

Curated by the horticultural team at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, Love Your Nature has over 20,000 plants on display and one of the largest living green walls in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Calyx’s kiosk, the Leaf Department, is open 8am–4pm every day. Visit for great coffee and juices, breakfast and lunch sandwiches, sweet treats and snacks.
