Autumn in Australia
Flowers in season in April in Australia
April is mid-autumn. Dahlias are still going, chrysanthemums build towards Mother's Day, and cymbidium orchids start to appear as the nights cool. It's also when gardeners sow sweet peas for spring. Flower farms around the country run their last open days of the warm season, so check before you drive out. Being confirmed
