Australia
The eighth international “Fascination of Plants Day” 2026 (FoPD 2026) will be launched by plant scientists across the world under the umbrella of the European Plant Science Organisation (EPSO).
The goal of this activity is to get as many people as possible around the world fascinated by plants and enthused about the importance of plant science for agriculture and sustainable production of nutritious food, as well as for horticulture, forestry and the production of plant-based non-food products such as paper, timber, chemicals, energy and pharmaceuticals. The role of plants in environmental conservation is also a key message.
The theme for Eucalypt Australia’s 2026 photo competition is “Our Eucalypt Home”. We look forward to how you interpret this in terms of amazing eucalypt photos. Just remember the eucalypts need to be a significant feature in the photo, but with this year’s theme, we understand that a creature may be the 🌟 stars 🌟 of your photo. If that is the case, there should be a demonstration of the importance of the eucalypt.
Please let us know what makes this image special to you.
