Episode 9: Jac Semmler / Super Bloom / Dry Planting / Propagation / Lover of all flowers
We're kicking off Season 2 with the delightful Jac Semmler, author, flower lover, and director of plant practice Super Bloom.
Jac has held coveted positions including Head of Plants and Strategy at The Plant Society, as well as roles at The Diggers Club. Her debut book Super Bloom is a manifesto to all things flowers, and her 2023 release, The Super Bloom Handbook is all about maximum flowers for minimum effort.
Heartland is the name of Jac's home garden, a suburban block turned flower paradise, on the land of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation.
Find Jac on Instagram here, and follow her beautiful plant practice and everything she's up to professionally at @SuperBloomAu.
We're drinking a 2023 Hughes and Hughes / Mewstone soiree pet nat from southern Tasmania. And it's delish.
