Cottage Plant List 2013

This plant list needs revising as many Cymbopogon ambiguus plants were lost to severe drought in Darwinia carnea hybrid North Eastern Victoria. New plantings Dodonaea microzyga have been most successful thanks to Ray Dryandra formosa and Rose Purches and family.

The pandemic has made essential self distancing and quarantining to arrest the spread of the Corona virus. As a result, most APS activities have been shelved for the time being. Being in isolation at home has been a mixed blessing.

AUSTRALlAM NATlVE PLANTS SOCIETY AUSTRALIA HAKW STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER No, 57 Leader Paul Kennedy OAM 210 Aireys Street Elliminyt 3250 Tel. 03-52315569 Internet hakeaholic@~rnail.com Dear Members. January 2015 has arrived with major variations in our weather, hot days, bush fires and now days of rain and cool weather. Our Australian plants have to adjust to a wealth of climatic conditions. Here in Colac it has been fairly mild. The drier than normal conditions continued through November and December with maximum daytime temperatures seldom reaching 30 degrees C. In early January there were three days of temperatures in the high thirtys but then the rain came and we are back to cooler weather. Rainfall for January was 70mm. The Hakeas have put on a fair degree of growth, most tripling their height since they went in. Out of ninety species only two have died probably due to poor root development and wind. Colac is a windy place and most of the Hakeas have been subject to strong winds. I have been planting the taller species such as macraeana, salicifolia fine leaf, drupacea and oleifolia on the perimeter to hopefully deflect some of the wind across the property. The original two truck loads of native mulch have been spread over five sheets of newspaper on the garden beds and has been very effective in reducing weed growth. I was hoping for another truckload of native mulch but had to settle for a load of pine bark which is now being spread on the remaining raised up beds. I am putting it on thinly as I want any moisture to go through to the soil belm~Tkepheba~k wilttakelongw tobreak down tse, In-rren urbanareaswhere bush fires could- - occur I would recommend a gravel mulch as wood mulch burns and only does more damage to the plants.

Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List
Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

Australian Plants Society Australia Hakea Study
AUSTRALIAN PLANTS SOCIETY AUSTRALIA HAKEA STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER NO. 70 JUNE 2019 ISNN0727-7008 Leader: Paul Kennedy 210 Aireys Street Elliminyt Vic. 3250 E mail [email protected] Tel. 03-52315569 Dear members. The last few days of late April have seen the weather cool down significantly and with some rain. It has been a difficult summer period as there has been very little rain and with so little moisture in the soil our natives have been stressed to survive. However, there are signs of new growth and budding up to flower. Here in southern Victoria I have continued to plant out Hakeas during the summer as the seedlings became big enough to go in the ground. The warm ground plus added moisture gets them off to a good start prior to the cold weather. My propagation success was not great this summer with many waiting to the autumn to germinate. Barry Teague at Swan Hill put seed down in October and most did not respond till April when the change in season occurred. Recently I took a trip up to the Grampians to see the gardens of Royce and Jeanne Raleigh and Neil and Wendy Marriott. Both have Hakea collections of over 100 species and I was quite surprised about how well they were surviving despite the very dry conditions. Some of the Hakeas in the Raleigh garden were planted some forty years ago and give us some idea of how long some Hakeas can live given the right conditions and some pruning. 2018 visit to Western Australia. I have reported on our Hakea excursion, but have said nothing about the two days prior when Tom Constant and myself met up with Jean Sloan at Kondinin.

BANKSIAS, GREVILLEAS and HAKEAS (Proteaceae)
Topics 5 and 20: BANKSIAS, GREVILLEAS and HAKEAS (Proteaceae) Australian Plants Society NORTH SHORE GROUP Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden Did you know that, • There are about 900 Proteaceae species in all states of Australia • The Banksia flower spike bears many individual flowers, from hundreds to thousands, but only a few produce seeds. • Grevilleas are often called Spider Flowers • Grevilleas and Hakeas are nectar sources for mammals, birds and insects. • Many new cultivars of grevilleas are produced by specialist propagators. • Banksias do not occur in Central Australia, but Hakeas are more widespread The Proteaceae Family This botanical family contains a diverse group of plants which includes Banksias, Grevilleas, Waratah, Hakeas, Woody Pear, Geebungs and many more. The family existed widely in Gondwana over 50 million years ago. After its breakup, members of the family were still present in South America and South Africa as well as Australia. Members of the family common then were however closer to today’s tropical and sub-tropical rainforest. The ‘Proteaceae’ name comes from the genus Protea, a South African member of the family. Incidentally, African plants of this family are often wrongly included amongst the Australian natives in nurseries or florists. Characteristics and Classification of Banksias, Grevilleas and Hakeas Banksias, Grevilleas and Hakeas are in a Proteaceae sub-family (Grevilleoideae) which has paired flowers, distinctive styles, follicle fruits and cluster roots. This sub-family has a wide range of forms and appearances, nearly all members have a common floral arrangement. 1. Instead of having separate petals and sepals they have four petal-like parts called ‘tepals’.

Local Native Plants of the Lower Hunter and Their Use in Gardens
HIP Species Lists Local native plants of the Lower Hunter and their use in gardens Why use local native plants? • Flora and habitat conservation By planting local native plants we directly contribute to the conservation of the flora of the local area. As many species of birds, mammals, reptiles and other fauna are dependant on local vegetation we can also contribute to habitat conservation. • Genetic conservation/ integrity The use of seed collected from local native plants contributes to the maintenance of genetic variation and integrity within native species. • Economic benefits As local native plants have adapted over long periods of time to suit local conditions the use of plants grown from locally collected seed generally result in greater long term survival rates from plantings undertaken. • Local landscape character The character of our landscape is provided largely by the local indigenous vegetation. • Education The use of local native plants provides opportunities for learning about the local environment. (See Ralph, Seed Collection of Australian Native Plants:For Revegetation, Tree Planting, and Direct Seeding, pp. 1-3) How local is local? “This is an important question but a complex one to answer. The definition of ‘local’ provenance is widely debated and researched. Likewise, the importance of using ‘local’ provenance is either hotly debated or completely ignored.” (Carr, 2004) We need to consider the following factors when deciding the importance of using ‘local’ provenance seed: 1. Species factors • The species used • The pollination and seed dispersal mechanisms of the species • The density of the species in natural stands • The species’ longevity • Any known sub-specific variation (subspecies, morphological variation, clines, ‘ecological significant units’, etc.

Grevilleas Hakeas 2020
Australian Plants Society NORTH SHORE GROUP Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden GREVILLEA AND HAKEA (PROTEACEAE) Did you know that, • Gondwana was the home of the PROTEACEAE Family • Grevilleas are often called Spider Flowers • Grevilleas have thin-walled fruits while hakeas have woody fruits. • Hakeas thrive on coastal heath, mountain tops and desert dunes but not in rain forests. • Both are plentiful nectar sources for people, mammals, birds and insects. Grevilleas and Hakeas belong to the PROTEACEAE family along with many of the typical plants of the Sydney region such as Banksias, Drumsticks, Geebungs, Mountain Devils and Waratahs. Grevillea was named as a tribute to the Hon. Charles Greville, an 18th century collector and propagator and Vice-President of the Royal Society. Hakea was named as a tribute to Baron von Hake, an 18th century Hanoverian patron of botany. The first plant described was eventually named Hakea teretifolia. Grevilleas – their characteristics Grevilleas are plants with woody stems and range from prostrate shrubs to small trees. Their leaves are alternately arranged on the branch and may be paler on the underside. Many individual flowers make up the flower-head (conflorescence). The flowers are stalked and often are grouped in pairs. Each flower has neither petals nor sepals, but has 4 perianth segments called tepals. Four anthers are attached to the tepals and the style emerges through the side of the perianth tube then elongates at maturity to first present pollen and afterwards to receive it. The tepals roll back as the flower opens. The flowers are arranged in racemes which may be short and umbel-like (spiders), elongated and secund (toothbrushes) or cylindrical in shape.
