Growing Friends Plant Sales are offered twice per year, in March and October. Australian native plants which have been propagated and grown by the Growing Friends group are sold to the public near the kiosk at the Northern end of the Australian Garden.

In October we will hold our second plant sale for the year, on Saturday/Sunday October 12 and 13, 2024.

We also offer Friends events and/or workshops designed to provide a deeper understanding of the Gardens themselves and the bushland surrounding it, as well as the scientific, horticultural and conservation work of our Botanic Gardens.

Visit our booking system page to see upcoming plant sales, programs and events.
