Each year, the City of Swan’s Free Trees and Plants Giveaway offers residents a selection of native, waterwise plants to support revegetation across both urban and rural properties in the City. It’s part of the City’s commitment to conserving our natural environment and increasing tree canopy across the community. Residents can apply for either an urban or rural plant pack, depending on the size of their property.
Urban residents
If you live on a property smaller than 4,000sqm, you’re considered an urban resident. Urban residents are eligible for one pre-prepared urban pack, which includes a mix of native plants suitable for smaller properties. Individual species selection is not available.
Rural residents
If you live on a property 4,000sqm or larger, you’re considered a rural resident. Rural residents are eligible to choose one option from five pre-prepared rural plant packs, each designed to suit different property characteristics and growing conditions. Plant mixes may vary depending on availability.
Applications are open on this page from February 2, 2026, to March 27, 2026.
