| January 2007 We have a long way to go in our efforts to photograph the flora of our region and to show various aspects of nursery work and the progress of the plants that leave the nursery each year but we are delighted with the generous response since we began the website in October last year. | ||||

| If you are able to help provide photographs, more information about submitting photographs can be found on other pages of the website: | ||||

| Since the work of the nursery is principally concerned with revegetation, our first work and priority is to photograph the species used in revegetation projects. We still have to photograph some of the 'workhorses' of revegetation, most of which are on our nursery list. Some of these species are not particularly pretty or easy to photograph, but we'd like to create a special spot for all of them! If you'd like to contribute photographs of these, please look at the Our Species List page or the Browse our flora A - Z pages for the gaps. | ||||
| Side by side with the nursery's work of growing the standard species of revegetation projects is also the constant task involving the evaluation of the species that could or should be used in revegetation/ecological restoration projects. It is our hope that together with others working in the field, we can be of service in growing a wider selection of local flora for revegetation/ecological restoration work. More information on revegetation questions on the Revegetation page. | ||||
| Posted 2007 (Our nursery list has changed a bit since 2007). Four 'new' species we are working on are Gahnia trifida and Kunzea rostrata (included in the current list), and Taxandria fragrans (formally Agonis sp. Coarse Agonis) and Melaleuca lateriflora ssp. acutifolia, unlisted so far. We are also attempting more sedges like Lepidosperma tetraquetrum and Lepidosperma effusum, also in the current list. Since June 2007, we have been growing a few species by cutting with the new cuttings house including Pimelea ferruginea, Darwinia citriodora, and Frankenia pauciflora. More on cuttings ... |
