Our Private Rooftop Garden in Brisbane, Australia

Our Private Rooftop Garden in Brisbane, Australia USDA Hardiness Zone 11a Tortoise Tea Garden —— Hi, I'm Ali, and welcome to Tortoise Tea Garden. This is actually my brand new YouTube channel, and my first ever video. I live in a unit in inner Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, and I've been interested in plants and gardening since I was a kid. By day I work in IT in an office, so gardening is very much my hobby and one of the ways I like to switch off and relax. We're lucky enough to have our own private rooftop garden, which is what I'm going to show you today. I also look after the shared garden for our whole unit block, which I'll show you in a future video. But for today, come upstairs and have a look around our rooftop garden. —— Featured Plants include: Ficus triangularis 'Variegata Aurea' (Southern Africa) Ficus lyrata 'Bambino' (Western Africa) Peperomia obtusifolia 'Variegata' (Tropical America) Ficus microcarpa 'Green Island' (Taiwan) Ficus elastica 'Ruby' (South/Southeast Asia) Ficus elastica 'Lemon Lime' (South/Southeast Asia) Ficus obliqua (Indigenous/Endemic) Ligularia reniformis (China/Japan) Kniphofia praecox (Africa) Ficus neriifolia (Asia) Ficus benghalensis (India) Melaleuca linariifolia 'Claret Tops' (Indigenous Endemic) Allocasuarina monilifera 'Red Fox' (Indigenous) Eucalyptus cinerea (Indigenous) Acacia binervia 'Sterling Silver' (Indigenous) Bougainvillea spectabilis 'White Stripe' (South America) Jacaranda mimosifolia 'Alba' (South America) Grafted Portulacaria afra variegata (South Africa) Bambusa textilis var.
