This has been an important and busy year for the Society. In January, we hosted a very successful biennial Australian Native Plants Society (Australia) conference in Hobart, with a flow-on of the themes being used within the Groups. Some of these themes include visits to saltmarshes and speakers on seed collecting and seedbanks. Membership numbers have remained constant and activities well attended. Another great annual get-together was hosted by the North West Group and held on the weekend of November 9-11. We experienced wonderful weather and beautiful garden flowers and plants on the Saturday. Be sure to read the report to get all the details. The Rosny Hill Development has been withdrawn and gone back to the drawing board, our support was part of this rational result. We have had another beautiful calendar of Tasmanian native plants produced by Amanda Walker for 2019. The focus for this calendar is the Winifred Curtis Reserve on Tasmania’s East coast at Scamander. More work has been done on planning for APST’s future. It is exciting to see that Council has become involved in the process, they are after all, the approvers of anything the Strategic Planning Group (SPG) send to them. It is their role to accept, approve and advance the ideas that the think tank, which is the SPG, asks them to tackle. This relationship is now working in a positive feedback loop. There is an invitation to you in this issue (see page 27) to visit and become informed about the development at Hobart’s Macquarie Point. From items in the newsletters I can see that this has been a great year for spring flowers. In my garden at the moment the fascination is with Stylidium graminifolium, the intriguing Narrowleaf Triggerplant. I grow them in pots as they don’t last too long in the garden but thrive in pots. It also means that I can move them around and enjoy them in different places. If you only had space or time for one potted plant, this is the one I would recommend. It is colourful, clever, increases flower spikes year on year and a great talking point for adults and children. From your Council and myself I wish you and the people who are special to you, a happy and peaceful holiday break and we will be back in the New Year with more exciting activities and adventures. Stylidium graminifolium, Eucryphia December 2018 5 Members’ Get-together November, Camp Banksia, Port Sorell Joy MacIntosh, NW group President The weather couldn’t have been better for the APST Members’ Get-together weekend at Camp Banksia in Port Sorell. Friday afternoon saw members check in from Northern and Hobart groups as well as several from the North West group, many having visited Dick Burns’ garden at Penguin on the way.

    Wildflowers to grow in your garden Here is the key to the list Trees Ground covers Shrubs Eucalypts Banksias Myrtle family Banksias Others Baeckea Other Beaufortia Calothamnus Chamelaucium Hypocalymna Kunzea Melaleuca and Callistemon Scholtzia Thryptomene Verticordia Large trees. Think very carefully before you plant them! Large trees, such as lemon scented gums or spotted gums may look great in parks - at least local councils seem to think so (we would rather see local plants). But you may regret planting them in a modern small garden. That doesn't mean there is no room for trees. There are hundreds of attractive small trees that grow very well in native gardens. Here are just a few. Small trees Eucalypts with showy flowers. Eucalytpus caesia Comes in two sub species with the one known as "silver princess" being readily available in Perth. Lovely multi- stemmed weeping tree with pendulous pink flowers and silver-bell fruits. E. torquata Small upright tree with attractive pink flowers. Very drought resistant. E. ficifolia Often called the WA Flowering gum. Ranges in size from small to quite large and in flower colour from deep red to = Corymbia ficifolia orange to pale pink. In WA subject to a serious disease - called canker. Many trees succumb when about 10 or so years old, either dying or becoming very unhealthy. E. preissiana Bell fruited mallee. Small tree (or shrub) with bright yellow flowers. E. erythrocorys Illyarrie, red cap gum or helmet nut gum. Large golden flowers in February preceded by a bright red bud cap. Tree tends to be bit floppy and to need pruning.

Baeckea ramosissimaA. Cunn. {Myrtaceae). A taxonomic and ecological Study. Telopea 1 (6): 409-420.—The taxonomic history Baeckeaof ramosissima is given. Two subspecies are recognized: B. ramosissima subsp. ramosissima is widely distributed in coastal and inland localities from northern New South Wales through Victoria to South Australia and Tasmania;B. ramosissima subsp. prostrata (Hook, f.) G. W. Carr, comb, et stat. nov., occurs in southern coastal New South Wales, southern Victoria and northern and western Tasmania. Both taxa are described and illustrated, also a key to their identification is provided. Distribution of the taxa is mapped. Geographical variation, ecology and biology are discussed. INTRODUCTION Baeckea ramosissima (as currently recognized by Australian botanists) is a widespread and very distinct species occurring in south eastern Australia. The eastern Australian species most closely allied to it are B. crassifolia Lindl. and B. ericaea F. Muell. My observations on its Victorian populations have supported the view of Willis (1973) that it is “A polymorphic assemblage, some populations of which may merit taxonomic distinction.” The descriptions by Black (1952), Curtis (1956) and Beadle et al.

  • Epacris Study Group
    ASSOCIATION OF SOCIETIES FOR GROWING AUSTRALIAN PLANTS Inc. EPACRIS STUDY GROUP Group Leader: Gwen Elliot, P.O. Box 655 Heathmont Vic. 3135 NEWSLETTER No. XS (ISSN 103 8-6017) Qctaber zaQ4 Greetings as once again we begin to enjoy the longer days of spring-summer and the encouragement this provides for many of our flowering plants. Despite the generally dry conditions many Epacris species are putting on outstanding floral displays. How are you going with your recording of the flowering times of Epacris impressa in your garden, as well as in nearby bushland or in other areas as you travel within Australia? It really is quite an exciting project because together we, as Study Group members, can make a real contribution to the overall understanding of this species, adding to the knowledge and research of botanists who look in detail at the features of the plant under the microscope and in its natural habitat. It iis a species which occurs both atsea-level and at higher altitudes. How are the flowering times affected when highland plants are cultivated at lower altitudes? Are flowering times different when plants fiom New South Wales for example are gvown much further south in soulhern Victoria or Tasmania ? Epacris impressu seems like an excellent species for us to research in this way. If our project is successful we may perhaps be able to continue with looking at the flowering times of other Epacris which are relatively common in cultivation. In case you have misplaced the recording sheet from our October 2003 Newsletter, another is included in this issue.

  • Status of the Vulnerable Shrub Astrotricha Crassifolia (Araliaceae) in Brisbane Water National Park, NSW: an Update
    SHORT COMMUNICATION Status of the Vulnerable shrub Astrotricha crassifolia (Araliaceae) in Brisbane Water National Park, NSW: an update Diane Warman and Doug Beckers1 Kincumber NSW 2251 AUSTRALIA. email: [email protected]; 1Biodiversity Officer, Central Coast Hunter Range Region, National Parks & Wildlife Service, Dept of Premier & Cabinet, Office of Environment & Heritage NSW. email: [email protected] Abstract: A resurvey (previously surveyed 2003–04) of the northern metapopulation of the listed Vulnerable shrub Astrotricha crassifolia (family Araliaceae) near Gosford, New South Wales, revealed six additional small subpopulations nearby, bringing to nine the total number, all in Brisbane Water National Park. While the stem count of the previously measured sites remained largely the same, the discovery of further subpopulations has increased the total known stem number to 1211 stems, with an area of occupancy of only 385 m2. The majority (nearly 80%) of these subpopulations are very small, directly adjacent to roads, and remain vulnerable to park management and maintenance practices. Astrotricha crassifolia is surviving due to its successful rhizomatous growth, but may not be reproducing from seed. This paper recommends some changes to management to reduce potential threats. Cunninghamia (2011) 12(2): 129–136 Introduction no reports of the species producing viable seed; there has been no evidence of seed germination or seedling growth in Astrotricha crassifolia Blakely (family Araliaceae), an over 20 years of intermittent observations (Bob Makinson, endemic New South Wales shrub (Benson & McDougall pers. comm. 17/11/ 2010). Astrotricha crassifolia responds 1993), is listed as Vulnerable, both under the NSW Threatened to slashing and fire by resprouting from rhizomatous growth.

    B.L. Rye, An expanded circumscription and new classification ofRinzia (Chamelaucieae) 39 Nuytsia The journal of the Western Australian Herbarium 28: 39–93 Published online 20 January 2017 An expanded circumscription and new infrageneric classification of Rinzia (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae) Barbara L. Rye Western Australian Herbarium, Department of Parks and Wildlife, Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia 6983 Abstract Rye, B.L. An expanded circumscription and new infrageneric classification of Rinzia (Myrtaceae: Chamelaucieae). Nuytsia 28: 39–93 (2017). The circumscription of Rinzia Schauer (Myrtaceae tribe Chamelaucieae DC.) is enlarged to encompass species with varied stamen arrangement, filament width and seed morphology. This revision of Rinzia s. lat. is based on both morphological and molecular evidence, and establishes five sections within the genus,Discolora Rye, Mesostemon Rye, Polyandra Rye, Semasperma Rye and the typical section. All sections occur in Western Australia, with three of them endemic to the south-west, while sect. Polyandra also occurs in central Australia and sect.
