Over the next five years we'll be developing a bulk seed supply of key functional plants, those which have a use in very quickly establishing a pre-design permacultural "canvas".
The foci being on quick shelter, soil improvement and supporting insect populations. Another important criteria is that these plants allow unhindered future development and can be applied to large scale designs (including national strategies).
So far those which have caught the attention of the 'talent scouts' are:
Narrow leaf lupin, Tree lupin, High mallow, Poroporo, Cardoon, Alexander, Cow parsley, Animated oat, White lupin, Common Vetch, Black Parsley.
If there are any more plants which are of this kind and you've always thought to yourself, "wouldn't it be grand to have two hundred kilos of this stuff" Please let us know.
