Native plant finder
Find the right local plants for your garden. Pick your plant community (the type of bush that grew in your area), choose a layer (trees, shrubs, groundcovers and so on), or just search by name. All 232 plants are checked against PlantNET, the official NSW plant list.

Sources: species lists from NSW Scientific Committee determinations, the Commonwealth conservation advice and council bushland reports for each community; names, sizes and habitat from PlantNET (NSW Flora Online). Garden notes are RF Horticulture's. Photos from iNaturalist and Wikimedia Commons under CC licences: see photo credits. Sizes are typical; garden plants are often smaller than wild ones.
DIY it
What you'll need:
- Your shortlist from the plant finder
- Tubestock from a local native nursery or your council giveaway
