Plant Information

The list of plants below relate to our Rome St project have been selected based on a number of factors:

  • Qld Regional Ecosystem Framework Technical Description
  • Historical changes to the soil profile
  • Suitability to local residents
  • Availability at nurseries
  • Consultation with our indigenous project partner
  • Consultation with Brisbane City Council

Check what category of plant it is, then click on the hyperlinked names to find out more. At least 10 volunteers have done research and produced info sheets for community reference. Want to learn more about local plants? Come to a Rome St working bee and get to grips with them.

NB: Due to the transition to our new site you will find that the links to plant information below currently link to an archived version of our previous website on TROVE.  We are slowly working to update this to sit on our new site.
