Yarra Yarra Group Inc (Incorporation No Australian Plants Society Yarra Yarra Group Inc (Incorporation No. A0039676Y) Newsletter April 2019 General Meeting: April 4th at 8pm Claire Farrell & John Rayner : Melbourne Woody Meadows Project Claire Farrell is a Senior Lecturer in Green Infrastructure, based at the Burnley Campus of The University of Melbourne. Her main research interest involves using plants to make cities more liveable. Claire has a PhD in plant ecology and for the last 9 years her research has focused on developing green roofs for Australian conditions. As green roofs are difficult places for plant to survive, much of her research has focused on the drought tolerance and water use strategies of native Australian plants, including granite outcrop vegetation. This world leading research has been published internationally and key recommendations have also influenced policy and practice. Other research includes plant selection for green façades, rain gardens and low maintenance shrub plantings. John Rayner is an Associate Professor and Director of Urban Horticulture at the University of Melbourne. His research and teaching is focussed around the design and use of plants in the landscape, including green roofs and walls, climbing, shrub and ground cover plants and therapeutic landscapes. Based at the Burnley Campus, John is a passionate educator, has published widely and regularly acts as a landscape and horticultural consultant. He is a keen gardener and in his spare time gains great joy from nurturing and torturing plants on his 1 ha garden in the Dandenong Ranges.

Email: [email protected] | 3 Meetng Report: Mint Bushes etc by Miriam Ford While many mint bushes like shaded moist conditions many have broader tolerances as mentioned for Pros lasianthos. There are a number of mint bushes that thrive in dry, hot conditions such as Pros aspalathoides, the Scarlet Mint Bush (also orange, yellow and white forms) from the semi-arid regions of NSW, VIC and SA; Pros magnifica, the stunning mauve-purple corolla with gorgeous burgundy shield-like calyx form the hot dry northern wheatbelt of WA and the striking striped Pros striatiflora from the semi-arid woodlands of NSW, SW, WA, Qld and NT and the handsome, long flowering Pros eckersleyana, also northern sandplains, WA. We are propagating all of these species for sale at the seminar. Several will also be available in grafted form from Phil Vaughan. A distinctive feature of many of the mint bushes is their minty aroma which arises from the volatile oils released from the many glands present on leaf and calyx surfaces when one brushes past a plant.

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.

(Northern Territory University) A thesis submitted to satisfy the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Institute of Advanced Studies, School for Environmental Research, Charles Darwin University, Darwin, Australia. March 2009 I hereby declare that the work herein, now submitted as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy is the result of my own investigations, and all references to ideas and work of other researchers have been specifically acknowledged. I hereby certify that the work embodied in this thesis has not already been accepted in substance for any degree, and is not being currently submitted in candidature for any other degree. Piers Barrow March 2009 i Acknowledgements My partner Cate Lynch provided support and encouragement, field assistance, proof- reading and editing, and forewent much of what is expected in normal life for a such a long time through this project, and I am deeply grateful. My supervisors Peter Whitehead, Barry Brook, Jeremy Russell-Smith and Stephen Garnett provided valuable advice and discussion, and, despite typically huge workloads, never failed to make themselves available to help. I am particularly indebted to Peter Whitehead, who shouldered most of the work, way beyond expectations, and provided guidance and insight throughout, and to Jeremy Russell-Smith, who has encouraged and facilitated my interest in the ecology of the Top End in general, and of the sandstone country and fire in particular, for many years.

The family was erected by Hutchinson (1959). Others have, to be sure, treated the family as a distinct tribe of Verbenaceae, beginning with Bentham and Hooker (1876) . The presence of endosperm in seeds as well as ovule position in Chloan­ thaceae have been used as criteria for segregating the family from Verben­ aceae (Munir 1979) . However, the present study adds two important dis­ tinctions. All species of Chloanthaceae examined to date have successive cambia. Verbenaceae have normal cambia except for Avicennia (Metcalfe and Chalk 1950; Zamski 1979), a genus sometimes recognized as a separate family. Chloanthaceae all prove to have bordered pits on imperforate tra­ cheary elements of the secondary xylem. These pits are not fully bordered; they are intermediate between fully bordered and vestigially bordered. Thus the elements should be termed fibertracheids. Vestigial borders have been reported on pits of imperforate tracheary elements of Petraea volubilis L.
