Interested in native plants?
Why not sign up for our Native Plant tour and workshop in May? Discover the collection of over 50 labelled native plants on a tour led by a native plant enthusiast here at Darts Hill Garden Park. The native plants are laid out on a hillside nature trail within the heritage garden. May is a great time to see these plants and trees.

Learn how to include native plants in your garden to attract birds and pollinators and take home a plant to get you started.
