Plant non-weedy species
and enjoy!
Pick up a copy of your region’s “Plant me
Instead” booklets for some good ideas for
environmentally friendly plants to replace your
weeds with.
Take care choosing what you plant, avoid
invasive ground covers and climbers, follow a
regular garden maintenance programme and
dispose of weed waste wisely.
By doing this you will be playing your part in
preventing the further spread of weeds in our
environment, and helping to protect the natural
areas that make New Zealand so special.
Make your place a
weed-free space
