How to Take Care of Australian Native
                     Plants




Almost all the house owners want to have a beautiful garden in front of their homes. A beautiful and
serene garden enhances the beauty of the house to a surplus level. Lush green velvety grasses
surrounded by colorful flowers and shady trees, it is the basic garden anyone would think of while
planning garden landscaping in Australia. Australia is a country which is a little different than the other
countries in the world having diverse yet different types of flora and fauna.
Flowers and plants in Australia require a different set of care regime then other plants, especially the
native Australian plants. Whether it is kangaroo paw, eucalyptus, melaleuca, acacia, or callistemon, all
the plants require care and management thus they can grow properly and increase the gorgeousness of
your garden. While determining the care and need of the plant, it is important to have information of
the plant, like where it grows, what is the climate of that place, what kind of soil it needs, and what are
the               water               requirements                 of               the              plant.

Australia has a diverse terrain thus not all Australian plants can be expected to have similar needs.
Somewhere it is mountainous, somewhere desert, and somewhere coastal, therefore having different
types of plants all over the Australian territory. If you are selecting plants for Australian garden then do
keep a thorough knowledge of the plant. While plating them try to keep similar plants together like if
some plants have higher water needs then you cannot plant them near the ones with minimal water
needs. The Australian native plants found in the wet coastal region will not grow properly along with the
ones found in the Australian deserts. Coastal plants will need more water hence they will die if sufficient
water is not given to them, likewise desert
plants will start rotting if too much water is
supplied                 to               them.

Avoid using chemical fertilizer to provide
nutrition to the native plants. Instead go for
the organic ones, made from biodegradable
materials. Organic fertilizer or biodegradable
manures are good for the native Australian
flower plants and also for the garden. They do
not cause any harm to the plant or your
garden as they are free from harmful
chemicals. While watering Australian Native
Plant determine your soil type, if it has high water retaining capacity then water plants once a week
only.
