Seeds of Hope is a series of new poems commissioned by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Victoria for the new Drylands, Arid Garden Precinct created 2025 to transition to a future warmer climate.

The Australian Drylands project is a shining example of how we can adapt to the challenges of climate change by using cutting-edge tools and First Nations knowledge to protect our native flora and shape a greener future for all Victorians.

My poetry is both a permanent installation of metal blocks featuring the poems that will remain in the Drylands Garden; and a series of illuminated cubes displaying the poems as part of the Winter Lightscape, 20 June – 20 August 2025.
