Dirty Lab Aquatic Plants Potting

Macquarie University has a modern and highly sophisticated plant growth facility, built and 1999 and housing a wide range of experimental programmes. It provides a basis for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in biology and research in national and international collaborative programmes.

The proximity of laboratories, equipment and growth facilities enable convenient analysis of plants from controlled environments on site. Soil and growth media are also prepared on site, avoiding transport issues.

Finally, parking is adjacent with restricted access available for delivery of bulky materials. The University's science buildings and Macquarie Centre are all within 5 minutes walk.
