Discover Australia’s weird and wonderful plants.

Australia is home to many fantastical, weird and wicked plants.

Plants exhibit amazing adaptations to harsh environments – they can deceive pollinators, trap and consume insects, produce defensive chemicals and even strangle one another in a competition for sunlight. 

Explore the world of dangerous plants at the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney these school holidays. Join a workshop to create a carnivorous plant habitat, take a guided tour of the Garden and learn about incredible adaptations for survival. 

Suitable for children ages 5–12 years.
