News from the Nursery We are madly propagating at the moment, with many thousands of new cuttings putting their roots out and seedlings popping their heads up above the propagating mix. It is always an exciting time, as we experiment with seed from new species – sometimes they work, and sometimes we understand why we’ve never grown them before... New plants should start being put out into the sales area soon – fresh-faced little things ready to pop into the ground! We have recently purchased a further block of land from the ex-neighbours Jubilee Nursery, now sadly closed, that will give us a lot more flexibility and the ability to grow and store more plants. As mentioned last newsletter we have done some major revamping in the garden. A lot of work by all the staff has led to a much more open garden with a lovely Westringia brevifolia hedge (well, it will be a hedge when it grows a bit), another Micrantheum hexandrum Cream Cascade hedge-to-be, lots of Correas, Lomatias and Baueras. Where we sell a few forms of a particular species we have tried to plant examples of each so that we can show you what they are like.

  • Newsletter No. 308– June 2015
    Newsletter No. 308– June 2015 PLANT NAMING AND STRUCTURE by Matt, Frank and Roger As I was away working for the May meeting, I am very grateful to Phillip Royce for this report. Three venerable members tackled the important but potentially awkward topic of naming plants and important features of their structures. Regrettably for them, and their audience, the laptop didn't connect to the projector and so an old-fashioned Q&A was the order of the night. During the course of the talk Matt, Roger and Frank encouraged us all to get more familiar with the botanical language that is used in the plant naming system and the descriptors of plants, flowers, fruit and leaves. A snapshot of their talk is below: The Swedish botanist, Linnaeus, lies at the heart of the modern binomial system of naming plants eg. Hakea laurina. The first name is the Genus the plant is in, and the second name is the particular species. The species name can come from many sources: the individual who found it, or a financier, or a member of Carl Linnaeus an expedition (Hibbertia banksii), or some-one's partner. Clues when plants are named after people There are four main groups of plants: Flowering are endings such as 'ianai, 'iae', 'ae' and 'ii'. The plants (angiosperms); conifers/pines (gymnosperms); species name could also be after the shape of the leaf mosses (bryophytes); and ferns (pteridophytes). All (Acacia glaucoptera) , or the colour of the flower Australian flowers have the same structures (Correa alba), or the location where they were associated with any other: petal, sepal, stamen (with collected (Eucalyptus yalatanensis - from Yalata in anther and filament), stigma, ovary.

  • Lomatia Tasmanica
    Lomatia tasmanica FAMILY: PROTEACEAE BOTANICAL NAME: Lomatia tasmanica, W.M.Curtis, Stud. Fl. Tasm. 3: 651 (1967) COMMON NAME: King’s lomatia COMMONWEALTH STATUS: (EPBC Act) Critically Endangered TASMANIAN STATUS: (TSP Act) endangered Lomatia tasmanica. A. Gray. Description A distinctive small tree, usually between 2-4 metres tall (sometimes up to 6-8 metres). This species is thin and spindly, usually branched at the top and may develop a leaning trunk with a few erect branches. The young stems and buds are densely covered in fine hairs. Lomatia tasmanica forms underground stems (rhizomes). Leaves: The leaves are green, shiny, shortly stalked, arranged alternately and crowded at the ends of the branches. They are either prickly-toothed or lobed and between 10-18 cm long and 2.5-4 cm broad (arranged like the barbs of a feather, with 7-10 pairs of stalkless leaflets). Flowers: The crimson flowers have yellow pollen sacs (anthers) and are arranged on stalks in succession along the stem (the oldest flower is usually at the base). They have 4 petal-like segments, hooded tips and are rather thick and fleshy. Fruit: Lomatia tasmanica is fascinating, as no fruit or seed has ever been found (both in wild specimens and those grown in the botanical gardens). Flowering has been observed to occur around January-February, however not annually. The population appears to be sustained by root suckering and coppice only (Lynch et al. 1998). Herbarium specimens have been collected from August to April. Distribution and Habitat This species is endemic to Tasmania and is restricted to Southwest Tasmania.

  • Ecology of Proteaceae with Special Reference to the Sydney Region
    951 Ecology of Proteaceae with special reference to the Sydney region P.J. Myerscough, R.J. Whelan and R.A. Bradstock Myerscough, P.J.1, Whelan, R.J.2, and Bradstock, R.A.3 (1Institute of Wildlife Research, School of Biological Sciences (A08), University of Sydney, NSW 2006; 2Department of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, NSW 2522; 3Biodiversity Research and Management Division, NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, PO Box 1967, Hurstville, NSW 1481) Ecology of Proteaceae with special reference to the Sydney region. Cunninghamia 6(4): 951–1015. In Australia, the Proteaceae are a diverse group of plants. They inhabit a wide range of environments, many of which are low in plant resources. They support a wide range of animals and other organisms, and show distinctive patterns of distribution in relation to soils, climate and geological history. These patterns of distribution, relationships with nutrients and other resources, interactions with animals and other organisms and dynamics of populations in Proteaceae are addressed in this review, particularly for the Sydney region. The Sydney region, with its wide range of environments, offers great opportunities for testing general questions in the ecology of the Proteaceae. For instance, its climate is not mediterranean, unlike the Cape region of South Africa, south- western and southern Australia, where much of the research on plants of Proteaceae growing in infertile habitats has been done. The diversity and abundance of Proteaceae vary in the Sydney region inversely with fertility of habitats. In the region’s rainforest there are few Proteaceae and their populations are sparse, whereas in heaths in the region, Proteaceae are often diverse and may dominate the canopy.
