An enthusiastic group of plants lovers gathered at the NICA rooms to hear Joan Heavey’s presentation on local Orchids. Joan has spent years researching, locating and identifying the Orchids found in and around Noosa Shire.
It was a productive and sociable morning last Saturday when six volunteers turned up to our second Verge Garden planting day.
Join Hilary Pearl for a hands-on workshop introducing some of the characteristics used to identify and classify plants. You will pull flowers apart and make a mini-plant press. Through photos of key plant features, you will enjoy a visual feast of Sunshine Coast flora.
Our Verge Garden Workshop, in partnership with Noosa and District Landcare, was well attended and the fine weather contributed to an enjoyable morning. It was held at the beautiful Station Place Native Garden next to the Landcare HinterHub in Pomona and attendees were able to see examples of many of the plants recommended for verges.
This workshop will take participants through the design requirements for verge gardens to meet pedestrian safety and servicing obligations, as well as the ideal native plants choices for your verge garden.
