Gumnuts - Free Booklet - Native Plants for Southern Tasmania

Free Booklet - Native Plants for Southern Tasmania

12 June 2008 4:56 PM

The Hobart Group of the Australian Plants Society Tasmania has compiled a new booklet to introduce gardeners to the joys of growing local native plants in their gardens.

The booklet covers plants in the southern Natural Resource Management region (approximately south and east of a line from the Freycinet peninsula, west through to Derwent Bridge, then south to Strathgordon and Port Davey.)

It will be available FREE from Tasmanian State Libraries, municipal offices in the region, the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens and the Sustainable Living Centre. Copies will also be available from Nurseries that stock local native plants (see this link for a list).

Further information on growing these and many more local native plants can be obtained at Society meetings and from website of the Hobart District Group of the Australian Plants Society (Tasmania).

The booklet is an Australian Government Envirofund project funded through the Natural Heritage Trust program.

Congratulations to the Hobart Group for undertaking this great project!
