Understorey and other plantings
Understorey species are sourced from local nurseries and from growers from the Australian Native Plants Society (Canberra Region). In 2012, STEP was invited to translocate three species from land in the Molonglo Valley that was scheduled for development. These were Chrysocephalum apiculatum (common everlasting), Eryngium ovinum (blue devil), and Cheilanthesaustrotenuifolia (rock fern). The translocation was successful and all three species can now be seen flourishing among the understorey plantings.
