Podolepis Parade
City of Brimbank 23 Sep 2023

For residents living in Cairnlea that face on to one of these grassland reserves: Iramoo Wildflower Grassland Reserve; Pimelea Wildflower Grassland; Featherheads Wildflower Grassland.

We are creating a Podolepis Parade in your street and we want you to be part of it.

We are giving every house a beautiful Basalt Podolepis (Podolepis linearifolia) plant - a native grassland wildflower that provides nectar for butterflies and small birds.

You can plant your Basalt Podolepis in your front garden, on your nature strip or keep it as a pot plant near your doorstep.

The Podolepis Parade will increase the food resources for our small grassland animals and it will serve as a stepping stone for butterflies travelling between our Cairnlea grasslands.

You will also receive a:

grassland information pack good grassland neighbour footpath decal voucher for a grassland starter kit (8 plants) from Iramoo Native Plant Nursery.

We will be delivering your Podolepis Parade pack on the weekend of September 23-24.

This project is being delivered by the Cairnlea Conservation Reserves Committee of Management and is supported by Brimbank City Council.
