It’s time again for the Noosa Botanic Gardens Autumn Plant Sale – on Saturday March 23 from 7am to midday.
As always, Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends have been flat out readying a huge stock of indoor and outdoor plants and seedlings to beautify your homes and gardens, with bargains galore.
But wait … there’s another added attraction this time … March 23 is also National Eucalypt Day, and Noosa Botanic Gardens are not short of a range of east coast and local gums in its eight-hectare paradise, so a special Eucalypt Discovery Walk has been devised, starting from 9am (arrive by 8.45am), to give you the chance to look at mature examples of these native trees. Tube stock of local eucalypts including koala food tree species will be available at the Plant Sale.
And you will be surprised by how quickly they grow in their native environs.
Numbers are necessarily limited for the Walk, so secure your place at noosabotanicgardensfriends.com/events-calendar/
It’s always advised you wear good walking shoes, a hat, insect repellent and sunscreen for the Guided Walks.
The Walk will start from the main shelter, down towards the SEQ Water park from where the plant sale is taking place.
For further information and/or weather check on the day, look for Noosa Botanic Gardens Friends’ page on Facebook.
Noosa Botanic Gardens are located on Lake Macdonald Drive, about 4km from Cooroy.
