PLANT FOR WILDLIFE

PLANT LOCAL TO ATTRACT LOCAL BY ANN MORAN AND MIKE FOX

"Sharing our gardens with wildlife is important for the survival of many local plant and animal species, can reduce the time we might spend weeding and dealing with pests, and enhances our own well-being." - Barung Landcare, Gardens for Wildlife Factsheets

Plant Local to Attract Local is a comprehensive guide highlighting the rich relationships between native plant species of South-East Queensland and the wildlife that depend on them.

The book serves as an organized database, cataloguing how each plant—grouped by vegetation type—is used by fauna for shelter, food, nesting, or as larval host plants, and is invaluable for anyone designing wildlife-friendly gardens in the region.

Printed copies are available at local outlets, including Noosa and District Landcare’s Hinterhub in Pomona, Coolum Community Native Nursery, and Barung Landcare.

Ann Moran is recognised botanist and field botanist with over 40 years of professional experience across Australia, known for her extensive work in biodiversity assessment, weed management, and revegetation planning.

Mike Fox serves as Project Director for Pollinator Link, a major initiative focused on urban wildlife corridors and pollinator-friendly landscapes, and has 18 years of experience in bush restoration, emphasizing habitat creation and ecological connectivity
