Lately the town has become known for growing freesias, daffodils and strawberries. Freesias (Cape bulbs) have naturalised across the cemetery from original grave plantings. Tourism, manufacturing, and horticulture, mainly tomatoes and cut flowers, especially freesias, have been declining. Freesias can be readily increased from seed. In 1938 "150 Years of Australian Art" anniversary catalogue reproduced her painting Freesias.
