The Bushfire Seed Collection allows you to experience the interesting practice of smoke germinating your own native seeds. Bushfire smoke plays a big role in seed germination of many iconic Australian species as bushfires have shaped our landscape for thousands of years.
The pack contains a careful selection of Australian flower species such as native Iris, Kangaroo Paw, the blue strap flowers and a mix of edible herb species such as the hardy native spinach, quandongs & native iris. All require special smoke pre-treatment with full instructions and smoke infused germination granules inside. A great way to learn about our unique flora while growing your own wildflowers and bush tucker at home.
These species work well in open gardens or in patio pots. Perfect for any sized garden where you want to support native species.

Care Instructions
Follow these detailed care instructions to keep your Elkhorn Fern thriving:
Mounting
Elkhorn ferns are epiphytic, meaning they naturally grow attached to trees. For best results:

- Use sphagnum moss around the roots
- Secure with fishing line or plant-safe wire until established
Watering
Proper watering is crucial:
- Soak the root ball and shield fronds thoroughly when the moss feels dry
- Allow excess water to drain completely
- Reduce watering in winter
- Mist shield fronds occasionally
Light & Positioning
Place your fern where it receives:
- Bright, indirect light
- Protection from direct sun, especially midday
- Good air circulation
