Beelu National Park

You can learn a lot from the flowers

they have ‘extra special powers’. 

So join Alicia to understand

our uniquely Australian wildflower-land. 

See sundews and orchids and tricky trigger plants 

pollinated by wasps and bush bees and even ants. 

Take a trail through the bush, play the pollinators game.

They are eaten, burnt, frozen, windblown and lie on the ground for years apparently dead, and still they can grow! Join us and discover the incredible power in a pip, and how our Australian seeds survive and become the next generation of plants. Plant your own seed and discover the power of pips for yourself.
