Kelmscott Agricultural Show 2024

Every year the Armadale Branch stages a wildflower display in the Flower Pavilion and sponsors art, photography and native flower arrangement prizes. The branch continues the tradition and has sponsored the following exhibition classes at the 2024 Kelmscott Agricultural Show.

Nice, but not a Western Australian Native:

A note for people who are asked to use Western Australian native plants in a project, artwork, floral arrangement etc.  

We often see non-Western Australian natives used; people are misled by nurseries, florists and landscapers who erroneously promote these plants as native, or see them growing in bushland.

Down load our guide HERE to the species commonly mistaken for a Western Australian Native.

We are sponsoring the following classes that depict Western Australian native flora.
