Indigenous Plant Nursery Map released

Nature Strip Planting Guide released for Banyule – supported by Indigenous Plant Nursery map

The recent release of the Nature Strip Planting Guide for Banyule has been met with great enthusiasm—and it comes at a perfect time with the availability of a valuable new resource: the Indigenous Plant Nurseries in Victoria Map.

This interactive map features over 100 nurseries across Victoria that supply indigenous native plants, making it easier than ever for individuals and groups to access species local to their area. These plants are not only beautiful but play a crucial role in supporting local biodiversity and restoring healthy ecosystems.

Whether you’re a home gardener looking to green your verge, a Landcare volunteer, or simply passionate about caring for Country, this map can guide you to the right nursery for locally appropriate plants.

Together, these tools—the Banyule planting guide and the statewide nursery map—empower communities to make informed, environmentally sensitive choices and help protect Victoria’s natural heritage. 

Be aware that you need a permit to plant on your nature strip from Banyule City Council.
