Wallaby-proof Plants

Wallabies are the bane of many Tasmanian bush gardens. The plants in this list have been found to be resistant to wallabies in the gardens of the nursery's staff. Wallaby tastes probably differ from place-to-place, but these are a starting point. Young plants are more likely to be susceptible to grazing. Unfortunately we can make no guarantees, and we would welcome any comments on these plants, or suggestions to add to the list.
