This guide provides details of 80 species of native plants from South East Queensland suitable to grow indoors, on cool or hot balconies, in courtyards or cottage gardens. There is information for each species on how easy it is to grow, light and water requirements, colours of flowers and fruit, along with characteristics including size, optimal growing conditions, where the species occurs naturally and if rare or threatened. These plants can be sourced from Native Plants Queensland or other local community groups or nurseries. When purchasing plants, we need to keep in mind that the source is sustainable and plants were obtained ethically, particularly for rarer species, and we must not collect plants or seed from the wild. Further details regarding the species are often available online, as well as from the book Mangroves to Mountains. This guide was produced by Kueper Ralph as part of his Work Integrated Learning course under the supervision of Professor Catherine Pickering. We thank those specialists who have provided us with advice and suggestions for the guide including members of Native Plants Queensland, and all those working to enhance biodiversity conservation in the region.
