Indigenous plants
For a spectacular and sustainable garden you need only look to Australia’s diverse range of natural flora for everything from trees and plants to shrubs and ground cover. There are thousands of species to discover. Many of which look beautiful and require little maintenance, consider:

The Banksia Tree’s distinctive candle shaped flowers are one of Australia’s best known plants.
Gum trees are an iconic Australian tree that is simple to grow in most climate conditions with moderate watering. For sustainable growing, consider purchasing seedlings from a nursery, as growing from seed or cuttings can be quite difficult.
Our national emblem, the Wattle Tree grows in shade or sun. There are over 1200 species of acacia. Some prefer the coast, while others are at home in our country’s dry interior. The Wattle typically grows as a shrub but some grow to tree height.

Cool-Season Crops


Cool-season veggies grow best at temperatures averaging 15° cooler than those needed by warm season types.

Many have edible leaves or roots (lettuce, spinach, carrots, and radishes); others (artichokes, broccoli, cauliflower) are grown for their immature flowers. A few (peas, broad beans) produce edible seeds.

Most can endure short periods of frost..

For best results, you need to grow them to maturity in cool weather; otherwise, they can turn bitter tasting, or bolt to seed rather than producing edible parts. (Except in coldest climates, plant them in very early spring so the crop will mature before summer heat settles in, or in late summer for a crop in fall in winter.

In warm regions, plant cool season crops from late summer to early fall for harvest in late fall, winter, or early spring.

In coldest regions where cool summers are the norm (Alaska, for example), plant cool season crops in May or June for summer harvest.

It’s an effective stress buster. In a Netherlands study, two groups of students were told to either read indoors or garden for thirty minutes after completing a stressful task. The group that gardened reported being in a better mood than the other group.

A good full-time gardener plants thought-seeds about their self and others that are rooted in reverence and loving-kindness and skillfully nurtures them. Others will then receive nothing but benefit from the seeds we drop along the way.
