I started a native garden a long time ago. I no longer add nutrients to soil, just a mix of quality compost mixed with manure. Topped off with pine bark mulch when needed.
West Aussie here. I pretty much plant our indigenous plants in sand with a little native slow release fertilizer (low phosphorus) and they respond fantastically.
Great information. I've just pulled out a stack of roses and planted natives. Now I'm thinking they may not grow well, as the roses had been there for years and fertilised regularly. I guess time will tell.
Jerry im guity as charged im going to have rewatch this excellent video to take notes i ve done wrong many times especially those free native plants Brisbane council give us on a yearly basis, but the good news the free native plant program has the plants in the tubes which is one of your noted must haves. And so the Indigigrow Mob down south sell stuff in the Tubes i shall buy the hard to find in Tubestock from now on thanks for the tips.
Nice to find little nurseries like this or buy and trade with gardeners. It's a little bit risque but a lot of commercial nurseries are pretty far off being environmentally sustainable. They may look green just because they sell plants but the energy used in production, nitrogen run-off, waste, water use, and the fact that fertilising is done in a way to make plants look great at selling time is anything but.
Thanks very much, really useful information. Please do more on natives. 🌱
Will do. Thanks for watching!

How wonderful to see my favourite native nursery festured. One can't go wrong with tubestock.
It was great to visit! Thanks for watching!
