The e-book series has been created in response to what has been observed over the years. Many people want to grow native plants but often don’t know where to start as the array of plants in a nursery seems too overwhelming especially when they are known by their Latin botanical names.  Other people are put off growing native plants when the plants they select by looks alone are simply not growing well and never thrive – this is where these books can be so useful.

This series of e-books will make it easier to select plants within different plant groups either by genus such as ‘Grevillea’ or ‘Beaufortia’ or for situations such as ‘Coastal Plants’. This will make it easier to select plants that will be suitable for your garden.  Outlined is the plant’s size and growing conditions so that you will know if the plant you want to grow has a reasonable chance of succeeding in your soil.

The e-books are saved under the GROW tab at the bottom of the right-side panel.

The Wildflower Society of Western Australia is concerned for the health and well-being of all our members and our paid office staff and volunteers. Government advice is to limit contact with others at this time, to try to reduce the rate at which the virus spreads.

For this reason, please be aware that the Perry House office of the WSWA is slowly re-opening on Tuesdays and Thursdays and if you wish to visit then please phone the Office first on 9383 7979 to make sure that someone is present. Wildflower Society activity and business will continue, but with most office-holders and office staff and volunteers working from home.

Branches of the Wildflower Society of course are also keeping abreast of this rapidly unfolding situation, and making individual decisions as to whether meetings and other events should go ahead. If you are a branch member, please monitor your emails and the WSWA website to keep up-to-date.
