Australian Bush

The Bush is a term used for rural, undeveloped land or country in Australia.


Australia is a dry continent with two-thirds of it's area classified as arid or semi arid. The indirect consequence of this dryness is seen in the prevalent occurrence of bushfire in Australia. The Australian bushland, so unique, so beautiful and yet at times so very deadly. The Australian bush has the ability to regenerate after bushfire, due to the dormant (or epicormic) shoots.
