What do you picture when someone says "wetland plant"?

Reeds, rushes, sedges? Great plants, doing great work. But here's one you probably don't picture: wildflowers.

This is Allittia cardiocarpa, commonly known as 'Swamp daisy'. It loves getting its feet wet and its flowers certainly stand out in a bog — white and mauve, from June, all the way through to February, when basically nothing else in the pond is doing anything.

It's rare. Like actually rare — under 10 known populations left on the Mornington Peninsula, and officially classifies as 'rare' and 'near threatened'.

We pulled this stock from Crib Point back in 2024 and it's taken two years of babying it to get to a size we're happy selling.

If you've got a pond, a boggy corner, a wet patch that never grows anything nice then this is your guy. Limited numbers, once they're gone that's it for a while.

🌿 Plant of the Week 🌿

Dianella brevicaulis — Coast Flax Lily. 💜

Compact little 30-50cm tufted perennial that punches way above its weight. It stays green all year round, blooms blue to violet flowers from September to December, then shining purple berries that hang around for ages.

Blue-banded bees absolutely love it, wrens and thornbills come in chasing the insects, small birds shelter in the dense foliage and eat the berries, and blue tongue lizards do the same. One small plant, heaps of wildlife activity. It's basically a hub.

Sandy coastal soils are its happy place but it handles heavier soil too. Moderately drought tolerant, some waterlogging tolerance, and full sun to part shade. Can be sheared back to ground level if it needs rejuvenating and it'll bounce right back.

Works in pots, garden beds, traffic islands, green roofs — pretty much anywhere you need something that stays reliably green and keeps working all year.

Come grab one in store or online (Victoria Only) via the link in our bio 🌿

🌿 New Stock Alert!

Fresh additions to the pots section this week and there's some good ones in there.

🌾 Gahnia radula — Thatch Saw-Sedge
A big striking sedge, 1-2m tall with long dark green leaves and dramatic black seed clusters. Loves moist poorly drained soils and rarely available commercially, so worth grabbing while you can.

🌿 Adiantum aethiopicum — Maidenhair Fern
You know this one. Delicate lacy fronds on those classic slender black stems. Loves a moist protected spot and works in pots, ferneries, indoors or out. Hard to go wrong with a Maidenhair.

🌼 Acacia pycnantha — Golden Wattle
Our national floral emblem doing what it does best. Masses of scented golden flowers from July to October, grows 3-10m, brings in the birds and handles a bit of drought once it's settled in.

Plus heaps more on the shelves.
Come in while stocks last.

🌿 Plant of the Week 🌿

This week we have chosen the Leptorhynchos squamatus, commonly known as 'Scaly Buttons'. 💛

Small, tough, and covered in cheerful little yellow button flowers. This perennial herb grows anywhere from 6 to 50cm tall and flowers for a huge chunk of the year. Ours are still going right now!

Found across Victoria, including a few scattered spots around the Peninsula. Likes well drained soil but handles moisture too. Grows best in full sun to part shade, can establish well at any time of year, and a magnet for insects.

Looks brilliant in pots or scattered through a wildflower grassland planting. The kind of plant that quietly makes everything around it look better.

Come grab one while they're still in flower and see it doing its thing. 🌼
