May Verge Visit
Each month the group holds a verge visit as part of our campaign to raise awareness of the need to protect biodiversity. This month it was Gayle's verge.
One of the things that drew a lot of attention was the area of flat-green. It isn’t grass. It’s an evolving mix of Mazus Pumilio, Viola Banksii and Dichondra repens. And yes, you can walk on it. It doesn't need mowing.

We are looking for more verge gardens to visit - large or small ones, new or established, especially some in the City of Moreton Bay Council area. Every council has a different policy, and the Moreton Bay policy is very different to the Brisbane policy. Please comment below if you’re interested.
