☀ 5 SUMMER SURVIVORS TO PLANT NOW ☀

The team in our community nursery came up with this list of climate adapted native plants which have survived and even thrived in their own native gardens around Perth. We’d love to know which native plants you would add to this list.

Please share and add your Summer survivors in the comments below.👇🏼

‼ Don’t forget! Our Native Plant Nursery is open to the public Thursdays and Fridays (9am-2pm) at Lot 2, Stirling Crescent, Hazelmere.

Our expert team are ready to provide free advice and ideas to help you pick the best native plants for your local conditions and climate.

🌼💛 HAPPY WATTLE DAY! 🌼💛

Celebrated annually on 1 September to honour our national floral emblem, the golden wattle.

The wattle symbolises resilience and rejuvenation, and its bright yellow flowers herald the start of Spring. Wattles are often fast growing, pioneer plants, among the first to regenerate after fire for example. Wattles are a diverse plant, with more than 1000 acacia species recognised.

The wattle is a unifying symbol across Australia, highlighting what it takes to survive and thrive in this ancient land. Wattle Day is celebrated across Australia with community events often highlighting the green and gold colours of the wattle, which also represent the national sporting colours of Australia.

We're celebrating Wattle Day by sharing five of our favourite wattles:

💛Acacia saligna (Golden Wreath Wattle)
🌼Acacia acuminata (Raspberry Jam Wattle)
💛Acacia extensa (Wiry Wattle)
🌼Acacia redolens (Vanilla Wattle)
💛Acacia microbotrya (Manna Wattle)

Which wattle do you love? 💛

HOW TO PLANT NATIVES - 5 TOP TIPS!

🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚 🌳💚
👏Now is the perfect time to plant natives in your WA garden. Soils are warming and rain is still coming!

The Trillion Trees Australia team and our dedicated volunteers grow native plants with love in our Community Nursery. Follow these steps to create your own urban forest with your native plants.

👩‍🌾PREPARE: Dig a hole to fit your plant. Loosen the soil to twice the length of the pot and twice as wide to allow the roots to spread. Fill the hole with water and wait for it to drain away. Place one native slow-release fertiliser tablet approx. 10cm to the side of where you will place the plant.
🌱PLANT: Remove your plant gently from the pot. Place the plant in the hole making sure the top of the root ball sits just below the soil in the ground. Back fill the hole and firm the soil down around the plant.
💧WATER AND NUTRIENTS: Water your new plants in well. Native plants love liquid kelp, such as Seasol or similar, which are
beneficial for improving the soil biology by encouraging microorganisms.
🤎MULCH: To help insulate against drying out and to restrict weeds,apply mulch approx. 10cm deep, keeping it away from the stem as this can cause rot.
🥰CARE: Water every day for the first few days, then twice a week for a few weeks, then once a week if no rain. Keep this up for the first summer until your plants are established. Watering less often, but deeply is best.

💚For more advice on how to grow native plants visit our Native Plant Nursery at Lot 2 Stirling Crescent, Hazelmere. We are open to the public Thursdays and Fridays 9am-2pm.

🌳VOLUNTEER WITH US! 🌳

Trillion Trees welcomes volunteers of all ages, experience and backgrounds to our inclusive, friendly volunteer team. All you need is a willingness to learn and a passion for the environment.

Volunteering with Trillion Trees is fun and fulfilling, knowing that you are growing a greener planet for everyone to enjoy.

The volunteering opportunities are varied and include nursery work like propagation, grounds maintenance tasks and helping with events.

At the moment, our community nursery volunteers are focused on propagation of cuttings for a wide range of native plant species. Our nursery team offers training and support, and senior volunteers are on hand to provide mentoring and friendly advice if you are new and inexperienced.

Volunteering opportunities are generally available Monday to Friday, 8.30am-2.30pm. You can come as often as you like - many volunteers choose a regular day or two each week but there is no obligation.

Volunteer inductions are conducted regularly, usually about once a month. In the first instance please apply online:

🌸💕 FLOWERING NOW!

🌸💕 Chorizema cordatum

A small scrambling shrub with profuse orange and pink flowers, the heart leaf flame pea bursts with colour from late Winter into Spring.

Does best in a semi-shade position, which will yield deeper coloured flowers. Will grow in most soil conditions but prefers moist areas, as it naturally occurs along watercourses and in winter-wet flats.

Acts as a living fertiliser by capturing nitrogen from the air and depositing it in nodules underground.

👏We are so excited to see Emily Ten Raa’s drawings of our seedlings become prints today!

Emily has drawn close to 200 species at our community nursery over the last 12+ months. The ‘Seedlings of Hope’ are all propagated by our dedicated, amazing volunteers.

Emily’s work will be displayed at .gallery from 14-27 September, with proceeds from sales generously donated to Trillion Trees.

The bulk of the exhibition “Seedlings of Hope” will be oil paintings on recycled jarrah/djarraly but Emily is also including the drawings. Attendees can buy one of these large prints of arranged drawings, or pick and choose a few that they’d like printed.

Thank you Emily for your support 💚🌳

The good people at Eucalypt Australia
recently announced the winners of their annual photo
competition, which this year had the theme of "My
Eucalypt Home." Trillion Trees Communications and
Fundraising Coordinator, Kate Herren, received a
judge's commendation for her photo "Eucalypt cubby."

It was also featured on the 10 News Perth weather report!

Judge Ian Roberts loved this picture of Australian
childhood wonder and adventure. It reminded him of
the McCubbin painting of the lost child. Here though,
the children are completely at home in the bush, away
from technology and hopefully preparing to be the next
environmental protectors.

“This photo shows my teenage son building a cubby in
a Eucalypt woodland near our home in the Perth Hills.
I love that he still enjoys cubby making and play well
into his teenage years, and feels so at home in the
Eucalypt woodland, making his own place. It was
precious to see him engage younger kids in the
building of this Eucalypt home,” explains Kate.
