The Blak Markets are back at Lapa this Sunday the 7th December after well over a year away and we will be there with our plants, native herbs and other goodies. With Bare Island bridge still out of action, we will be on the lawn in front of the La Perouse museum. Make sure you all get there as thereโs plenty of stuff going to be happening. Thereโs 20 stalls selling all authentic Aboriginal made products along with dance and singing performances, free communal weaving workshops, thereโll be a Bushfood BBQ run by community. Get along with the family and make a day of it and itโs the last Blak Markets for 2025 and a great opportunity to pick up some early Xmas presents. We hope to see you all there.
Look at these mass germination of baby Flannel Flowers. 16 trays means many thousands brewing. Sown on the 3rd November, thatโs the quickest theyโve been for us. We canโt wait to grow these on for you all.

Out for a quick harvest of Dianella caerulea and revoluta fruit from our mother stock we planted way back. We literally have tens of thousands of seed for the next season or two. Rewards come with patience and our many mother stock plants we planted over the last 5 years are really beginning to give out now. Dianella congesta harvest tomorrow.
Today, our customers were in the hands of 18 year old Luke and 17 year old Leilani. This isnโt the first time these two have run our nursery on the biggest trading day of the week and in the busiest period of the year in Spring. This is what leadership is about, creating young leaders who get out there and mix with our customers, yarn and provide the right plant advice. This is on top of starting at 7am tidying up, ensuring all plants have signs and making sure things are right before opening the gates. These isnโt many nurseries where young kids are running them. IndigiGrow builds young leaders of tomorrow
