Pub Quiz Dream Cruises 1 Issue 024 keep dreaming... 70 Glen Osmond Road, Parkside, SA | (08) 8274 1222 [email protected] As a proud Sydneysider, I am excited that this week’s feature is on NSW, and in particular looking at National Parks in 8 Sydney and its surrounds. I have spent a lot of time holidaying in my own state, as a kid enjoying time spent on summer beach holidays, and as an adult staying in the Blue Mountains, as well as on the coast both north and south of Sydney. Some of my favourite National Parks are showcased in our story. And with travel restrictions as they have been the last 6 months I’ve had the chance to explore places like Bouddi National Park, on the Central Coast. I’ve also done some of the legs of the Bondi to Manly walk – which I would highly recommend. It really does give you a chance to see more of our amazing city and harbour away from the ©Central Coast Tourism crowds and the traffic.

  • Final Research Report for the Australian Flora Foundation Research Grant 1993
    FINAL RESEARCH REPORT FOR THE AUSTRALIAN FLORA FOUNDATION RESEARCH GRANT 1993 Development, Germination and Dormancy of Actinotus helianthi (Flannel Flower) Seeds Lynette A Lee, Dr Peter B Goodwin Department of Crop Sciences, University of Sydney NSW 2006 Introduction Actinotus helianthi, the Sydney or Common Flannel Flower, has considerable horticultural potential as a cut flower, and as a rockery or container plant. It belongs to the family Apiaceae (syn. Umbelliferae), which includes many well known culinary herbs and vegetables, such as carrot, celery, parsley and dill. Flannel flowers are one of. the more common and attractive wildflowers found growing naturally in sandstone country along the east coast of NSW and southern Queensland. However, their use in cultivation is presently restricted because of erratic germination from seed. The aim of the current project was to investigate the development, germination and dormancy of flannel flower seeds in order to obtain a greater understanding of their germination requirements, and to thereby find a means of achieving better germination from seed. This will in turn help to reduce pressure, on wild populations, by increasing the production of plants in cultivation. Specifically, the objectives of this project were: i) to investigate whether the poor seed germination is due to low seed viability or seed dormancy; ii) to examine ways of improving germination; iii) and to study the seed anatomy. Materials and Methods: During late 1992 and early 1993, seed was collected from eight locations around NSW, in areas extending from the Royal National Park south of Sydney to South West Rocks on the North Coast (see Appendix 1).

  • Ken Duncan's Location Guide
    COASTAL PARADISE REVEALED - KEN DUNCAn’S LocatioN GUIDE I decided to launch the Ken Duncan Photo Awards on the Central Coast, because it is one of the most beautiful regions in Australia, offering many diverse opportunities for photography. The area is not only home to me, but it’s also where we run our ever-popular “Coastal Exposure” workshops, for aspiring photographers. If you can’t take a great photo here, you should possibly give up photography. From forest to sea, the Central Coast - Australia’s premier waterfront and lifestyle destination - has it all. The region stretches from Munmorah State Recreational Area in the north to the Hawkesbury River in the south and is bounded by beautiful coastline to the east and McPherson State Forest and Dharug National Park to the west. We’re inviting amateur and professional photographers from all over Australia to submit their photos of the Central Coast online for the chance to win great prizes. This includes the opportunity to have their images published alongside my own and the work of other great local photographers in a brand new book that will be launched in the second half of 2012. If this sounds like the competition for you, I’ve listed below some of my favourite photographic locations to give you ideas on where to start. But the real key is to just go exploring and you’ll be sure to find some wonderful gems. • Munmorah State Recreational Area is an extremely picturesque coastal area, but take care at Birdie Beach – it’s a nudist colony, so be careful of over exposure!.
