The quintessential Australian ethnobotanic garden.

Budding ethnobotonist here. Besides a few Cacti and some Acacia Accuminatas, I don't have much. Will obviously include Caapi eventually. 

Assuming one lives in a non-tropical part of Australia, What should the ideal ethno -botanic garden include?  With or without a greenhouse?
Keen to hear the collective wisdom!

Australia has a massive range of climates, and as such its difficult to be all inclusive.  I have lost so many caapi's and other plants to winters and the wrong climate.

 

Quintessential australian ethno garden, some good suggestions above, but i think if you keep it to Trichocereus of some sort, and Acacia of some sort, catha edulis, brugmansia, datura, artemisia, salvia, and other herbs. lophophora is pretty quintessential.
