Discover Australia’s weird, wonderful and dangerous plants.

Tour the bog garden and take home a dangerous plant.
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 Blue Mountains Botanic Garden Mount Tomah during 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.
