Report by Rosemary Barr. Seventeen keen participants left Ballarat on Wednesday 19th September to go to Elaine and the residence of Gladys and John Hastie who provided a wonderful morning tea including delicious scones cooked by John. We were able to have a quick look around their wonderful garden, seeing a vast variety of native plants and their pots of cuttings and propagation plants. We then travelled to Lara where we visited Yarrabee Native Garden, not far from Barwon Prison. The five-acre property was purchased in 1982 by Steve our host. From flat flood-prone land, he took two years to raise the land level by bringing in hundreds of tonnes of landfill. From there a dam was built which is filled with natural runoff water. The garden included sugar gums, Queensland bottle trees, grevilleas, correas, eremophilas, geraniums, salvias, kangaroo paws and crepe myrtles and many other plants. A net-covered orchard included about 30 trees including plums, apples, quinces, figs, pears and guava trees. In 2012 they built 10 vegetable garden beds out of recycled corrugated iron and wood. A variety of vegetables are being grown. They also have a nursery and a propagating area. We all enjoyed meandering around the vast garden at our own leisure. A much-appreciated lunch supplied by Gladys and John ended our enjoyable visit. We then travelled to the Serendip Sanctuary, a 250 hectare area which is home to a rich and diverse array of birds and mammals. We all had an hour walk around this wonderful place. Four interconnecting nature trails were enjoyed. Walking amongst the wallabies and kangaroos, through the bird enclosure, including being up close to a variety of birds, including the Tawny Frogmouth. Specially designed bird hides enabled us to view some of the 150 species that inhabit the lake there. We would recommend this place for any family outing. Reluctantly we left the sanctuary after a fun afternoon, bound for Ballarat. Another stop for afternoon tea at John and Gladys’ house where coffee, tea and an array of cakes and good company were greatly appreciated. We arrived back in Ballarat about 5pm after a safe and happy excursion. Thank you to Warren who drove so well for us all day. We all sincerely appreciate his efforts. Thank you also to Gladys for organising our excursion. Scenes from the Excursion All photographs: Rosemary Barr Australian Plants Society Ballarat District Inc.

  • Report by John Knight Blessed by a Gorgeous Autumn Day, and the Promise of an Interesting Program, a Large Gathering Arrived at Anne and Michael’S Durras Property
    Report by John Knight Blessed by a gorgeous autumn day, and the promise of an interesting program, a large gathering arrived at Anne and Michael’s Durras property. The warm and dry conditions of recent weeks continue, and the expected display of Sunshine Wattle, Acacia terminalis did not eventuate, but the bushland around North Durras did present us with quite a diversity of plants to keep everyone interested. During a relaxed morning tea, enjoyed on the deck in the sunshine, the meeting kicked off with a ‘show and tell’ session. Phil and Catriona were once again to the fore, with a range of Banksias and Hakeas. A highlight was Hakea bakeriana, a medium sized shrub which is found in the heaths of the central coast. Foliage is a bright fresh green, and although it looks prickly, is quite benign. Brilliant pink to red flowers are borne on older wood, but still well presented. Catriona put in a plug for the Isopogon and Petrophile Study Group, which she and Phil lead. And with flowers as shown on her Isopogon cuneatus specimen, it is little wonder members get enthusiastic about these plants. Then comes the revelation that for success, they are best grafted onto hardy eastern states rootstock. Phil continues to experiment with this process, and is having good success using a hybrid of Isopogon mnoraifolius from the northern tablelands. Banksia vincentia, the most recently named Banksia, occurs in a swampy area near industrial development at Vincentia on the NSW South Coast. There are just a few plants remaining in the wild, and the population is seriously threatened by development and changed drainage patterns.

  • Heat Damage in Sclerophylls Is Influenced by Their Leaf Properties and Plant Environment1
    CoSCIENCE E 11 (1): 94-101 (2004) Heat damage in sclerophylls is influenced by their leaf properties and plant environment1 Philip K. GROOM2, Department of Environmental Biology, Curtin University of Technology, P.O. Box U1987, Perth, Western Australia 6845, Australia, and Centre for Horticulture and Plant Sciences, University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury Campus, Locked Bag 1797, Penrith South DC, New South Wales 1797, Australia, e-mail: [email protected] Byron B. LAMONT, Sylvia LEIGHTON, Pattie LEIGHTON & Chantal BURROWS, Department of Environmental Biology, Curtin University of Technology, P.O. Box U1987, Perth, Western Australia 6845, Australia. Abstract: Mediterranean southwestern Australia experienced two successive days of extreme (> 45 °C) maximum temperatures and hot winds during the summer of 1991, resulting in adult mortality and extensive crown damage in a sclerophyllous mallee-heathland. To investigate the relationship between leaf attributes, plant environment, and heat tolerance in sclerophylls, measurements of plant height, leaf clustering, leaf morphology (thickness, dry density, area, perimeter/area ratio), percentage crown damage, and percentage mortality, and categories of exposure to wind, shade, and bare soils were recorded for 40 heat-damaged and 14 undamaged co-occurring species. Analyzing the entire dataset by principal components analysis showed that undamaged species had thicker leaves (on average 61% thicker) than species with damaged leaves and were more exposed to wind, sun, and bare soil. Thicker leaves are a common response to hot, dry, and more exposed environments and are more heat tolerant than thinner leaves. A separate analysis of the Proteaceae (25 damaged and six undamaged species) showed a similar trend to the overall dataset.

It is considered to be a significant plant disease as it could cause biodiversity loss and severe economic losses in plant industries in areas where it is not yet known to exist, such as Australasia. Foliar susceptibility and sporulation potential were tested using detached-leaf assays for 70 Australian native plant species sourced from established gardens and arboreta in California using a NA2 isolate of P. ramorum.

And of course telling all your friends what great plants they are! We have a fantastic issue for you, thanks to the great contributions from you, our members. The theme for this issue is the propagation of isopogons and petrophiles. We examine three methods – seed raising, cuttings and grafting. Members from the winter-rainfall States Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia may be able to grow many species on their own roots with some success, however grafting is essential on the East Coast for most of the WA species.
