Summary	This is the story of one of Australia's most influential botanists and writers on nature, plants and gardens. During a writing career that spanned seventy years, Jean Galbraith turned botanical writing into a literary art and was tireless in spreading knowledge of native plants. This is also the story of a writer and her place, a valley in Gippsland, Victoria. The valley was fundamental to her being and the source of her inspiration.
