Gardening guru Sabrina Hahn is here to help Australian gardeners of every level create and maintain their own patch of botanical bounty. With endless knowledge and a healthy splash of cheeky humour, Sabrina has the solution to every plant problem.

Channelling over three decades of knowledge as a horticultural and garden design expert, Sabrina Hahn knows how to get Australians doing it in the garden when it comes to creating and maintaining your green space.

From getting down and dirty preparing your soil to doing it organically with edibles (like nuts, herbs, fruit and veg) to learning how to corral the suckers and chewers in your life (bugs and other pests - what did you think we meant?), you'll discover just how seductive nature can be.

Focusing on sustainability, biodiversity and managing the effects of climate change, Sabrina's endless inspiration and practical problem-solving will entice you to get things growin'.
