Plants of The Pinnacle Nature Reserve (at December 2013) The following list of plants identified in The Pinnacle Nature Reserve was mainly compiled by Rosemary Blemings based on the observations and work of many colleagues. It was augmented by the results of the extensive plant surveys carried out as part of fotpin's Native Grass Restoration Project. It is always a work in progress and is updated regularly as new species are found. We are also grateful to Malcolm Fyfe for helping to make many of the species names in this list comply with the 2012 Australian Plant Census.
