    THE GERANIUM FAMILY, GERANIACEAE, AND THE MALLOW FAMILY, MALVACEAE TWO SOMETIMES CONFUSED FAMILIES PROMINENT IN SOME MEDITERRANEAN CLIMATE AREAS The Geraniaceae is a family of herbaceous plants or small shrubs, sometimes with succulent stems • The family is noted for its often palmately veined and lobed leaves, although some also have pinnately divided leaves • The leaves all have pairs of stipules at their base • The flowers may be regular and symmetrical or somewhat irregular • The floral plan is 5 separate sepals and petals, 5 or 10 stamens, and a superior ovary • The most distinctive feature is the beak of fused styles on top of the ovary Here you see a typical geranium flower This nonnative weedy geranium shows the styles forming a beak The geranium family is also noted for its seed dispersal • The styles either actively eject the seeds from each compartment of the ovary or… • They twist and embed themselves in clothing and fur to hitch a ride • The Geraniaceae is prominent in the Mediterranean Basin and the Cape Province of South Africa • It is also found in California but few species here are drought tolerant • California does have several introduced weedy members Here you see a geranium flinging the seeds from sections of the ovary when the styles curl up Three genera typify the Geraniaceae: Erodium, Geranium, and Pelargonium • Erodiums (common name filaree or clocks) typically have pinnately veined, sometimes dissected leaves; many species are weeds in California • Geraniums (that is, the true geraniums) typically have palmately veined leaves and perfectly symmetrical flowers. Most are herbaceous annuals or perennials • Pelargoniums (the so-called garden geraniums or storksbills) have asymmetrical flowers and range from perennials to succulents to shrubs The weedy filaree, Erodium cicutarium, produces small pink-purple flowers in California’s spring grasslands Here are the beaked unripe fruits of filaree Many of the perennial erodiums from the Mediterranean make well-behaved ground covers for California gardens Here are the flowers of the charming E.

Tas. 7250 Noel Manning 6344 2277 Sept-Oct Northern Group Newsletter The beginning of spring is not just a busy time in our blossoming gardens but also in the Groups. This has been especially so as the Northern group this year was responsible for designing and bringing together all the elements of a superb stage display in addition to the usual booth at Blooming Tasmania Festival. The stage display was a one off task and for this I am sure the very busy committee was thankful. The display was magnificent: the culmination of meticulous planning and so much creative effort. Plants in pots graced the stage, covering categories from rainforest to coastal. Animals added to the striking backdrop and the plants, such as the Huon pines, man ferns etc. kindly lent for the display by Habitat nursery at Liffey. The booth area was informative with several photos featuring gardens from the 3 group regions. Some highlights were the native orchids massed in a pot, the colourful senses-grabbing posies and the single flower specimens in test tubes vases which drew in passersby. Final words from Louise who so admirably coordinated the whole project and then the packing up (on her birthday!) Over 30 members contributed to this APST Inc. event to promote our Society and native plants. Some members were on the hard working sub-committee; many provided plants or carted, installed and dismantled the stage display; some provided photos for the booth display or for the PP presentation or gave their time to provide flowers and make posies; others manned the booth over the weekend and let's not forget the papier-mâché rock creators! Thanks to all.

The programs are prepared in addition to Regional Management Plans to provide detailed information and guidance for the management and protection of certain exploited or threatened species (eg Kangaroos, Noisy Scrub- bird and Rose Mallee). This Program provides a brief description and information on the distribution, habitat and conservation status of flora declared as rare under the Western Australian Wildlife Conservation Act (Threatened Flora) in CALM's Katanning District and makes recommendations for research and management actions necessary to ensure their continued survival. By ranking the Declared Rare Flora in priority order according to these requirements, Departmental resources can be allocated to those taxa most urgently in need of attention.

  • DRYANDRA STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER No
    DRYANDRA STUDY GROUP NEWSLETTER No. 16 ~~~~:0728-151~ JULY 1989 SOCIETY FOR GROWING AUSTRALIAN PLANTS -I- DRYANDRA STUDY GROUP LEADER NEWSLETTER EDITOR Mrs. Margaret Pieroni Mr. Tony Cavanagh 16 Calpin Cres. 16 Woodlands Dr. ATTAD ALE OCEAN GROVE W.A. 6156 Vic. 3226 I hope all members in the Eastern states have survived the "big wet". I know parts of New South Wales and Queensland are almost awash and in Victoria, we are having our wettest winter for many years. It will be interesting to see how dryandras fare- please let me have your observations. In this issue, thanks to the sterling efforts of Margaret and Keith, I am able to bring a major discussion of the very complex Dryandra pteridifolia complex. This is preceeded by a description of the structure of the Dryandra flower together with line drawings by Margaret. Margaret also contributed an article on Dryandras in cultivation in Perth, and Hartley Tobin provided similar information for his gardens in Victoria. Ron Pearson supplied notes on his seed germination experiences and interesting comments on the weed potential of dryandras. Finally, there is a short note from me on the latest developments in Dryandra taxonomy- hopefully, something for everyone! Two projects which could help gain more information on dryandras are a survey of frost tolerance and a survey/recording of pollinators. My feeling, which is not backed up by more than a few casual observations and a couple of comments, is that dryandras are reasonably frost tolerant but we need confirmation. Any comments from members in frosty areas would be gratefully received.
