Growing Friends Plant Sales
The Growing Friends Spring Plant Sale will be held on Saturday 11 & Sunday 212 October 2025, between 10 am and 4pm each day.
Plant lists for the Spring sale will be available online on this website about a week before the Sale. If they are useful, you may wish to look at the plant lists from the recent Autumn Plant sales, but there are likely to be different plants available in Spring.
The Growing Friends propagate a great variety Australian native plants from cuttings, divisions and seed, throughout the year. Many of these can be seen in the Cranbourne Gardens.
Plants may be sold to members, the public, local council, etc. Proceeds are used by the Friends to support selected projects for the Gardens. Plants are also used for educational and revegetation purposes.
- Plants are grown for education purposes for school students visiting the Gardens organised by the Gardens’ Education Team.
- Sales to the public are held in Spring and Autumn in the Gardens.
