Collect · Grow · Restore

The Australian Native Plant Platform.

Seed collection, nursery production and restoration planting on one record — so what goes in the ground still names the seed it came from.

Three hubs, one record

Seed becomes stock. Stock becomes a planting.

Each hub covers one stretch of that chain, on the same organisations, sites, species and people. All three are open, and every plan includes all three. The chain was built as one record from the start.

Available now

Collect

Plan fieldwork, capture it offline on a phone, and keep every seed lot joined to the plant, place and permission it came from.

Explore Collect

Available now

Grow

Nursery production, stock and sales. Sowing draws from the seed lot, so a batch on the bench still knows where its seed was collected.

Explore Grow

Available now

Restore

Zones, planting plans and planting records. A planting consumes the batches that went in the ground, and still points back down the chain to the seed.

Explore Restore

The record you have now

Most seed records are assembled after the fact.

The collection happened months ago. The evidence is spread across a phone, a notebook, a shared drive and somebody's memory. It can usually be reconstructed, but only by the person who was there, and only if they still work here.

Provenance you cannot prove when a buyer, auditor or funder asks for it.
A permit that lapsed because the reminder lived in somebody's inbox.
Datasheets transcribed twice, and photos still sitting in a camera roll.
Two spreadsheets that disagree about what is actually in the freezer.

Inside Collect · in the collector's hand

Everything needed for a clear field record.

The job, the plant list and the photo prompts are all on the phone, in a shape the person holding it can work at speed.

What you're there to do

The job, the sites and the species list are already on the phone.

Works with no signal

Save to the device first, then sync when reception returns.

GPS you can trust

Every position is saved with how precise the fix was, in metres.

Guided photos

Prompts in the moment for the shots that make a record usable later.

Collections and observations

Record what was collected and what the plant was doing.

Come back to the same plant

A revisit lands on that plant's history, alongside every earlier visit.

Your own forms

Change a form whenever you need to. Past records keep the form they were captured on.

One screen for what is waiting, what is done, and anything that needs you.

See the evidence, then see where it belongs.

Observations and photographs remain connected to known plants and return visits.

Plan. Collect. Trace.

One record follows the work, even when responsibility moves between the office, the field and the seed store.

Plan

Prepare sites, species targets, timing and permission evidence.

Connected provenance

The seed lot does not begin at the shelf.

A useful record carries the relationship between plant, place, permission, collection and lot. NativeFlow holds those links open, so you can still walk back up them years later.

Plant: Identity, history and evidence
Place: Site, position and recorded accuracy
Permission: Approval state and supporting evidence
Collection: People, date, quantity and media
Seed lot: Processing, storage and handoff

Australian field reality

Built around the conditions and context of the work.

Australian plant context

Species names, taxonomy and occurrence data come from the Atlas of Living Australia.

Built around the seed supply chain

Sourcing, collection, processing, testing and storage follow the chain set out in the Florabank Guidelines, the national reference for native seed collection and use.

Permission evidence

Approvals and their supporting files stay visible beside the work they cover.

Sensitive locations

Your organisation controls who can view exact plant coordinates and original photo metadata.

Australian field conditions

Every hub captures work on a phone with no signal, because that is where most of this work happens.

We show our working

Readiness signals name their source. NativeFlow records the decision; the ecological and legal judgement stays yours.

Native-seed stewardship

Good records keep future choices open.

Native seed may support seed banking, research, cultural practice, revegetation, nursery supply or other work. Whatever the seed is for, the record is the same: a durable, reviewable account of what happened.

Trust in the record

Safeguards you can point to.

One record, however bad the signal: A dropped connection or a retry still leaves you with exactly one copy.
You can see the queue: Collectors know what is still waiting, what is done, and what needs attention.
Australian data hosting: Core field records and files are stored in Australia.
Your records are yours: Only your organisation can see your data. The database enforces that boundary itself, a layer below the app.
Exports that match reality: Registers and evidence packs are built the moment you ask, from the current record.
