Plants for Locals
The City of Gosnells is offering residents up to 5 plants per household as part of our Plants for Locals program.
This program is aimed at residents who wish to add some colour and biodiversity to their gardens, reduce water use in the garden or attract native animals. All plants are native, with many being endemic to our region, and waterwise.
Plants will be available in pre-selected packs - each pack contains 5 plants that have been selected for their common qualities or ideal planting location. The packs types available are verge plants, groundcover plants, trees/shrubs and wildflowers.
Registrations are essential and plants will be available for collection on Saturday 16 May at Maddington Community Centre, Alcock Street, Maddington. Residents will need to bring proof of residency (either photo ID such as a drivers license, a rates notice or utility bill) and their registration ticket.
Along with plant collection, residents will be able to purchase a sausage sizzle, browse some stalls, visit the coffee van, and learn more about the environmental initiatives taking place within the City. There will be a range of children's activities, hands on with wildlife and educational stalls.
Please read the FAQs for more information.
