Answer:
If I only knew Rosemary! Only local gardeners will know the local soils, microclimates, and which plants will grow there. Contact a local garden club or Bunnings garden people or just walk around the block and pop in to any places that have a plant that you like and ask them what is is. If they don’t know, take a flower and a few leaves to the local nursery or Bunnings for ID. Local knowledge is always best! Don
