Costa visits the Children’s Garden in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Melbourne, to take a look at how plants can be used for play. The garden, opened 21 years ago, set revolutionary new standards in nature-based play. Costa looks at some of the elements that make this space such a favourite with kids. It has been scaled for children and includes some fascinating foliage, as well as places to hide away, roll down grassy knolls, run through water, or just sit and enjoy a picnic.

We visit 11-year-old Noah, who has loved gardening since he was seven! Noah says he was inspired by walking in the neighbourhood and seeing so many verge gardens. At home, he has taken over the family’s front garden. He has even named the four olive trees in the front garden after four Gardening Australia presenters! With his parents, Rebecca and Steven, he has removed all the grass from the front garden and replaced it with raised garden beds growing fruit, flowers and vegetables.
