Culture & Country
Continuing culture and strengthening connection to country.
We Grow Australian Native Bushfoods and local endangered plants.
At IndigiGrow, we specialise in propagation and growing of Australian native edible plants in the critically endangered Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub (ESBS).
By working with ESBS this important ecosystem, we educate and engage our young people in culture, connection to Country and teach them how to care for Country.

IndigiGrow paves the way to increasing Biodiversity with a Weekend for the whole family IndigiGrow is launching its “Caring for Country” program next Saturday 17 … Read More
Today marks the beginning of mass propagation of our 80 Citrus australis (native round lime) mother stock plants. We’ve been growing these stock plants for 4 years now and it’s super exciting to now start propagating. We’ll do many hundreds of cuttings over the next month or so and will have these ready for sale some time next year.
In case you haven’t heard yet, we are now selling wholesale priced plants to the public. All your popular edibles, general natives and local coastal species. A huge range all at wholesale prices. Save an absolute packet when planting out your garden this spring. Importantly, our plants are kept out in the elements so they are hardened when you buy them which means they are much more likely to survive when planting as opposed to plants being sheltered and shaded.
We are building our stocks of this beautiful coastal Species. Hibbertia nitida is a small growing shrub with stunning yellow flowers. Very rarely available in nurseries, we are hoping to have this available soon
Look out for these stunning Olearia tomentosa (Toothed Daisy Bush) down the track, we have propagated many mother stock to allow us to increased production dramatically. A beautiful coastal Sydney Daisy bush.
Another couple of local species Jay and the apprentices have been working on with great success is the Lomandra glauca and the Lomandra oblique. Both stunning low growing grasses. We are working very hard to make them available to the wider public
Our master propagation expert Jay Cook is a happy Chappy this morning. His Philotheca salsolifolia wax flowers have struck roots. This is an extremely hard species to propagate and one we have been working on for some time now. Hopefully we can produce many more in future. Philotheca salsolifolia is a member of the critically endangered Eastern Suburbs Banksia Scrub on our coastline.
