Bringing it home My experiences in Australia have been truly rewarding. As I reflect on my time there, I feel grateful for the opportunities I’ve had to learn and grow. Collaborating with companies like Yards and Semken Landscaping has shown me the importance of working alongside passionate teams who are eager to share their expertise and love for the industry. Not only did I learn from those I worked with, but I also had the opportunity to share my experiences and knowledge from Canada. It’s rewarding to both learn from others and provide insight into the different styles and methods of gardening from my home country. Although Canada has a colder climate, knowledge of tropical and subtropical plants remains important in the horticulture industry. We frequently encounter tropical plantings in shopping centres, offices and indoor gardens. By working directly with these plants in their natural environments, I can apply what I’ve learned to effectively design and maintain these indoor spaces. I strongly recommend seeking opportunities to work abroad to fellow landscapers, whether you're involved in construction, groundskeeping, design or another area of the green industry. The world is so diverse, and there is much to gain from immersing yourself in different cultures and ways of living. LT
