At Lagoon Creek Community Nursery, we're passionate about native plants and their crucial role in sustaining our local ecosystems. Here’s why incorporating native plants into your garden is not just a trend, but a necessity for preserving biodiversity:
Support Local Wildlife 🐝🦋
Native plants provide essential food and habitat for local wildlife, including birds, insects, and small mammals. For example, the Hoya australis is a host plant for the Common Crow Butterfly, offering a lifeline to these beautiful creatures.
Adapted to Local Conditions 🌞🌧️
Native plants are perfectly adapted to our local climate, soil, and weather patterns. This means they typically require less water, fertilizer, and care compared to non-native species, making them a sustainable choice for your garden.
Enhance Ecosystem Stability 🌱🌿
By planting native species, we contribute to the stability and resilience of our ecosystems. Native plants have evolved alongside other local species, forming complex relationships that help maintain ecological balance.
Prevent Invasive Species 🚫🌍
Non-native plants can become invasive, outcompeting local flora and disrupting ecosystems. By choosing native plants, we reduce the risk of these invasions and help preserve the natural plant diversity.
Promote Pollination 🌸🐝
Many native plants have evolved to attract specific pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and birds. For instance, the fragrant flowers of Coleus nitidus and C. graveolens are excellent at attracting bees, which are essential for pollination and plant reproduction.
Cultural Heritage 🌾✨
Native plants are a part of our natural heritage. They have been used by Indigenous communities for food, medicine, and cultural practices for generations. By cultivating these plants, we honor and preserve this rich cultural legacy.
Our knowledgeable volunteers will be on hand to offer advice on plant selection and care.
