Grow Aussie natives indoors: varieties, tips and tricks

Millie shows you some Australian native plants that can be kept indoors. Tips for choosing natives for indoors: - Start with rainforest species as these plants thrive in low-light levels - Plants with a water storage system will be more forgiving if you miss a watering - If you have a warm and bright spot indoors, you may have success with bush tucker plants like the Davidson Plum, however you won’t get fruit indoors if the plant isn’t pollinated - Look for plants with interesting or striking form and foliage - Try native vines like the Kangaroo Vine if you have an indoor stairwell in a sunny location Caring for native indoor plants: - Use a good quality native potting mix for your native indoor plants – these will drain well and contain fertiliser in the mix - Top up indoor pots every 6 months - Apply a small amount of mulch around the top – gravel can work well for indoor plants - Wipe leaves to remove dust with a moist rag. Dusty leaves cut down the amount of light available to the plants - Inspect plant for mealy-bugs and scale and treat with horticultural oil. Watering indoor native plants: - Water requirements will vary according to the light, humidity and temperature that the plants are growing in - Most plants like to stay moist but not drowning so water where the pots can drain freely then sit them inside a sealed pot that’s lined with gravel at the base. This ensures the plant isn’t sitting in water. Location, location, location: - Choose a place indoors that resembles the natural growing conditions of the plant - Avoid hot, north-facing positions that could burn the plant - Filtered light is usually ideal - Be mindful of heaters, fires and air-conditioners that can dry out plants. - If your plant isn’t thriving in one location, try another till you get the best spot. You may need to move plants throughout the seasons. Watch Gardening Australia on ABC iview: http://iview.abc.net.au/programs/gard...
