“Native plants are adapted to the Australian climate, requiring less water, less fertiliser and less fuss, so you will have more time to sit back and simply enjoy your garden. By planting native flowering plants you can also attract (and help to preserve) some of the unique Australian wildlife, including birds, frogs, lizards, butterflies and native bees. These creatures will help to control insect pests in your garden and pollinate your flowers”

“When we build new developments, we should be trying to encourage people to engage with the local ecology…we should be taking drought-tolerant plants that are in northern Australia and use those as city plants. What we should be doing is getting native tropical plants into cities. ”
