Autumn plant sale

What plants would grow well in your garden? If that's a question you can't answer but you want to, take a trip down to Noosa Botanic Gardens at Lake Macdonald on 29 March from 7am-noon to find out!

Friends of Noosa Botanic Gardens volunteer group are holding their annual massive Autumn Plant Sale, where you can get expert advice on what to plant to create a great native garden.

The “friends” have been beavering away in their propagation shed for months, preparing a whole range of plants grown from seeds they collected from the Botanic Gardens. The plant range is enormous, including old-fashioned, collectable, and both native and sun-hardy plants. There is also a great range of exotics, including indoor and shade-loving plants, salvias and other pollinator-attracting plants.
