We’re giving away 500 native plant packs to help green local gardens as we complete the M80 Ring Road and build a seamless connection to North East Link.
Get free native plants delivered to your door by registering if you live near the major construction areas in Bundoora, Greensborough, Watsonia, or Watsonia North. Register below to receive up to 12 free plants.
This program is on top of work already underway to plant at least 2 trees for every 1 removed. This includes planting across Melbourne’s north east at Watsonia Primary School, local streets near the Ring Road in Greensborough and at the Simpson Barracks in Yallambie, with more planned.
It’s all part of delivering one of the biggest tree planting programs for a major road project in Victoria.
All plants have been carefully selected to thrive in local residential gardens, attract birds and pollinators, and help create a healthier, more resilient backyard.
Australian native plants bring your garden to life. They offer beautiful colour, texture and structure, while supporting local birds, bees and wildlife. Easy to care for and naturally resilient, they’re the perfect choice for creating a vibrant, low-maintenance outdoor habitat.

What is a layered garden?
A layered garden uses a mix of groundcovers, shrubs and trees to create a natural, thriving garden. Different plant layers work together to attract wildlife, improve garden health, reduce weeds and create year-round interest.
