Climate Change is a Fact

The world is experiencing warmer dryer conditions. As we recognize that our climate is changing dramatically, we know we need greenery, flowers, birds and animals in our daily lives.

Shade in our hot climate is vital. Viable habitat for our native birds & animals is imperative. Water is crucial to all our lives and we must continue to use it wisely.

Austraflora represents more than eighty years’ experience in selecting and developing reliable, colourful native plants, so who better to help you develop a modern sustainable garden?

Good gardens are possible and achievable. Good planning and good product are what it’s all about.

The Environment needs Austraflora Plants

The Austraflora EzyCare® Native Plant Collection represents a wide range of plants suitable for the design of both small gardens and large scale landscapes.

Plants are selected and trialled for versatility, long flowering, bird attraction & size. Particular emphasis is placed on small and compact selections, in tune with the smaller more compact size of many of today’s gardens.

Many of these landscapes are designed with hard surface finishes rather than lawn areas, often resulting in too much glare and heat. Shade is essential to modify these undesirable outcomes. This is where the small eucalypts that are such a prominent component of the Austraflora range come into their own.

Immediate benefits include the cooling and shading effect on walls, windows and paving, reducing heat loss in winter and heat absorption in summer; long flowering selections provide habitat and food for birds, insects and small mammals.

As we recognize that carbon levels in the atmosphere are taken up by evergreen trees, it is more important than ever to provide year-round foliage and habitat.

Austraflora’s small eucalypt range is well equipped to handle hotter & drier conditions, far more effectively than trees from Northern Hemisphere climates.

The Austraflora range represents the type of plants that evolved as ancient climates became drier. That is why they are appropriate for today’s conditions.
