Indigenous Plant Trail
The Urrbrae wetland indigenous plant trail consists of a number of provenance plants that were used by Aboriginal People for food, medicine, fiber and tools.
Each of these plants is marked with a small sign, containing information about the traditional uses and cultural importance of the plant. This signs contain a QR code, which when scanned using a smart phone, creates a direct link back to these fact sheets. The fact sheets below contain extra information concerning the plant including description, distribution and interesting information.
Kurana people have been consulted throughout this project, however the majority of information printed here and on the signs is from published resources.
Urrbrae Wetland does not guarantee, and accepts no legal liability arising from or connected to, the use of or reliance on any material contained on this fact sheet or on any linked site.
