• Learn how to grow your own native plants from cuttings
• Support our volunteer gardeners by becoming an 'at home' gardener, propagating new native plants for replanting at the Cemetery

Hosted by landscape designer, horticulturist and educator Narelle Harp from A Garden for Life. 

Narelle specialises in native gardens and permaculture design and at this session Narelle will cover:

• Which plants grow well from cuttings
• Soil requirements
• How to make your own cutting mix
• Caring for your new cuttings

There will also be a hands-on lesson in taking a cutting to pot up and take home!

This activity is also an opportunity to support Volunteers at Waverley's Cemetery Gardening activity. Attendees are encouraged and welcome to propagate natives at home, and provide these established plants to the Cemetery Gardening team for planting at a future date. This way you can join the Cemetery gardening team of volunteers to beautify the cemetery and create a new native habitat, simply by gardening in your own back yard!
