WELCOME to the Sydney Wildflower Nursery Heathcote's PLANT INFORMATION files.

We provide a very basic introduction to native plants, their biology and gardening which we hope you will find interesting and make gardening a little more fun. It should be useful for school projects at the very least!

More: Introduces you to some specialised plants such as climbers, edible native plants and their recipes.
Gardening: In this section we give you some useful information about planting, fertilising and caring for your plants.
Biology: Some useful information about the science of garden plants, insects and fauna that may visit.
Index: Using this button you can obtain a list of the various articles you can access under these headings.
