Creating your tropical paradise is as easy. First, you need to create a tropical microclimate in your bare backyard. You can do that by following these steps:

1. Set your soil. It needs to be nutrient-rich and well-draining.
2. Consider layering. Before you plant, you need to remember that tropical plants grow close together for protection.
3. Start with a shield. Hardier, wind-tolerant palms will protect delicate tropical plants below.
4. Retain heat. Stone walls and bricks are excellent insulators against the cold and wind.
5. Select for style. Once your microclimate is functioning, you can plant an array of lush green foliage punctuated by vibrant flowers.

With a bit of care and attention, many exotic plants will thrive in Melbourne's unique soil content and climate. At All Green, we stock many popular varieties of tropical plants. Here are some of our favourites:

• Cycad: These fascinating, prehistoric plants are accustomed to dry, arid climates, meaning that they use water sparingly. If you're looking to create a hardy, but environmentally-sustainable garden, cycads are a great starting point.
• Frangipani: These stunning tropical plants originally hail from the Caribbean and Central America, but are right at home in Australian gardens. Create an iconic tropical experience with a range of colours, from whites and yellows, to vibrant pinks and oranges.
• Bougainvillea: Native to eastern South America, these stunning climbers favour partial sun, but will recover nicely from frost in winter. Create a gorgeous, bright garden with a range of beautiful tropical colours including yellows, pinks, and oranges.
