Often wrongly perceived as a drab time in the garden,winter gardens are full of gentle colours and heavenly scents, with jonquils and daphne, camellias and hellabores, primula and pansies all enjoying the winter sunshine, while in the native garden hardenbergia, grevillea, leptospermum and wattle are all putting on a glorious display.
