Native plant guide

• Looking to select native plants for your property?

• Want to know what plants are best suited to your area?

• Interested in creating a habitat garden?

• Want to learn more about your local environment?

Choosing local native (indigenous) plants that are suited to your area is a simple way to a low-maintenance garden. Planting local also provides important habitat for native wildlife, and helps maintain the local character of your area.

Use our interactive map below to find a local native plant list for your property:

• Navigate to your property in the map window and click to select, or 
• Type your property address in the search bar on the top left corner of the map window, starting with the street number.
• A window will pop up showing the plant list(s) for your property. Click on the hyperlinked plant list name (e.g. Grassy Woodland Plant list) to download.
