Darren is the author of Australian Rainforest Plants for Your Garden (Simon and Schuster 1992) and popularised the use of Australian rainforest plants and other rare native plants through his specialist nurseries at Dural and Gleniffer, growing and propagating sometimes rare but always wonderful little-known plants.

60% of Australian plant species occur in the rainforest, making them an essential consideration for any landscape project in Australia, especially on the east coast.
