An increasing number of residents can take
the sting out of their next rate notice by
cashing it in for free plants.
Greening towns and cities is heavily
reliant on residential plantings to
supplement public parks and gardens.
Providing free plants is an enlightened way
local authorities encourage more
residential planting.
These days, few people need convincing
to go green.Leafy suburbs are viewed as more
desirable and typically command higher
property prices. We appreciate the climate
modification and fresh air greenery
provides – but more than this, research
indicates that we seek out green space for
its psychological stimulus or “biophilia”
effect.Native wildlife increasingly need
replacement habitat and encouraging the
establishment of locally endemic plants
helps save wildlife and plant species from
extinction.The number of plants handed out under

free plant schemes is impressive.
Ipswich City Council has handed out
500,000 free plants to residents from
council nurseries at Queens Park and
Goodna. They also have a mobile nursery
that brings plants to residents.
If you live in Ipswich, you can claim six
free plants per year. New home builders or
buyers are entitled to an additional
25 plants – a great
encouragement to start
planting within the first 12
months of moving in.
Increasingly, free
plant programs offer
much more than just
trees. Recognising that
not everybody has
room for even a small
tree, many local
authorities offer small to
medium shrubs, attractive
climbers, petite ground covers
and native grasses. Many of these
plants are suitable for pots; ensuring
greener townhouses, courtyards and even
balconies.Brisbane City Council has an impressive
range of free, garden-worthy plants under
its free native plants program, including the
popular little penda (Xanthostemon
verticillatus); bower vine (Pandorea
jasminoides); various forms of bottlebrush
(Callistemon species) and lilly pilly
(Syzygium species).
Residents can search the available plant
list online (brisbane.qld.gov.au) or visit their
local library to find out more. In addition to
their annual allocation, free plants are also
available to residents at council sponsored
green events.On the Sunshine Coast, local
councillors organise free tree
days (look for advertisements in local
newspapers and on social
media). City of Gold
Coast(goldcoast.qld.gov.au);
Logan City Council
(logan.qld.gov.au);
Somerset Regional
council (somerset.qld.gov.au);
Toowoomba Regional
Council (tr.qld.gov.au) and
Cassowary Coast Council
(cassowarycoast.qld.gov.au) also offer free
plants to residents.
Contact your council or local member to
find out about schemes that operate where
you live.Claiming free plants typically requires
some evidence of residency, such as a
current rates notice. Plant allocations are
typically every six m

I’ve been pondering whether I really need
coffee tables in my life. True, I enjoy stacking
them with potted succulents, fashion books
and little objects picked up on travels – items
I constantly rearrange to satisfy my need to
potter. But in smallish spaces, oversized des-
igns can eat up valuable floor space required
for vigorous Just Dance sessions or a spot of
Wii golf.“I personally don’t believe you need to
have a coffee table in the living room,” says
Jo Mawhinney, national retail manager of
furniture store Living Edge. “Rather than
one large coffee table, the use of several
small occasional tables is often more ben-
eficial. A series of tables can be easily moved
around the room depending on how you are
occupying the space.”
Occasional tables, slender of leg, will
cover all the bases – for cups of tea, glasses of
wine, books and TV remotes – but you may
sacrifice the hidden storage that coffee ta-
bles sometimes offer. That said, something

RELAXED VIBE: Monty's Alley at Mermaid Beach blends personality and knowledge for your caffeine hit. Pictures: Russell Shakespeare
The full Monty
The sauce could do with a little more heat, but
those spud cakes are something worth driving
from Brisbane to the Gold Coast for.
There’s also a cabinet inside filled with gluten-
free treats made by a GC local and its worth
blowing your daily calorie limit to indulge in the
pistachio and coconut bar.
My coffee – I eventually decided on a
cappuccino – was also well made and well priced
($4 for a generously portioned small) with notes of
vanilla and a smooth finish. There are also
smoothies, old-school thick shakes and icy crushes
like the fruit-packed Berry Good with blueberries
and strawberries blended with tropical sorbet.
Monty’s Alley is the handiwork of husband and
wife Nathan and Brooke Ogden and the pair has
created a winner.

“What coffee would you like?” the friendly girl
behind the counter asked as I tried to place my
order.“That one,” I said, pointing at the flavour
description of the Wilde coffee from Brisbane’s
Seven Miles the cafe had on pour.
Of course, the girl was actually asking me if I
wanted a flat white, long black or macchiato, but it
had been a rather large night the night before and
this was to be my first coffee of the day after far
too little sleep.“Clearly you need this,” she joked, after I
realised my vagueness and we had a good laugh
about my impaired mental state.
The service at Monty’s Alley at Mermaid Beach
effortlessly blends personality with patience and
knowledge, helping diners when they’re at their
most vulnerable, which is before their daily
caffeine hit. This laid-back, relaxed vibe is echoed
in the fit-out. Byron Bay artist Tere Gottlieb has brought a
splash of colour and hippy touch to the space
previously occupied by a fish and chip shop with
her mandala mural next to the register. In the
main dining area is an artwork that says “Life
happens, coffee helps”.
There’s a green wall, more brown on our visit
with the plants either suffering from too much or
too little water, and a mix of high and low tables.
Although the low, deck-style chairs and tables are
a little uncomfortable if you’re planning on
staying a while.
You will definitely want to after you take a look
at the inviting all-day menu, which is a
combination of classics and on-trend items, such
as a mango and passionfruit bowl, breakfast
burger and Nutella croissant French toast.
The Monty’s Feast is its version of a big brekky
and at $20 it’s terrific value. It comes loaded with
two slices of thick, toasted fabulous Brasserie
Bread, a runny-centred poached egg, half a roast
tomato singing with thyme, a chutney that brings
the heat, mashed avo, a cheese-topped field
mushroom, haloumi and sweet, melting beef
brisket and is simply fantastic.
It’s possibly only beat by the sensational spud
cakes ($17, pictured). The two handmade hash
browns are rendered beautifully crisp and evoke
groans of pleasure thanks to the distinct flavour
created by the Maillard reaction. They come
topped with sauteed spinach, mashed avo,
perfectly poached eggs and a mild chipotle sauce.
