Visit the HMAA Pre-Loved Book Nook at the Queensland Garden Show

Garden lovers, plant tragics, book browsers and bargain hunters, this one is for you! The Horticultural Media Association of Australia is bringing a little literary magic to the Queensland Garden Show with our HMAA Pre-Loved Book Nook.

Our members have been busy fossicking through their personal libraries, garden sheds, office shelves and well-thumbed reference collections to gather a treasure trove of pre-loved horticultural books. These are the books that have inspired gardens, solved plant puzzles, guided pruning decisions, sparked design ideas and kept many a gardener happily reading over a cuppa.

Now these much-loved tomes are ready for new homes — and at prices that will be pleasing to the purse. Show-goers are warmly invited to browse, discover a bargain, and perhaps take home a gardening gem or two. From practical plant guides and garden inspiration to beautiful books full of horticultural wisdom, there will be something for curious beginners, seasoned gardeners and collectors alike.

So come and have a rummage, rescue a book, and help give these garden treasures another chapter. You'll find the HMAA Pre-Loved Book Nook beside the HMAA Plant Clinic — the perfect place to seek advice, identify a mystery plant, and leave with a book tucked under your arm.
