Wallum and Coastal Heathland study group

The Wallum Group is a little different to most other Study Groups in that its interest is a specific vegetation type (coastal 'Wallum' heath) rather that a genus or family of plants. The main aim of the Group is to further knowledge about the cultivation, propagation, regeneration and conservation of Wallum/heathland species and habitats.

A further aim is to create more awareness of, and interest in, the Wallum and other wildflowers. Members of the Group are mainly keen amateurs with no formal horticultural or botanical knowledge, although a number of professionals in those fields also participate.

The Study Group has been in operation since 1992 and since its inception over 40 newsletters have been issued.

For more information about this study group, please see the ANPSA site: http://anpsa.org.au/wallumSG/index.html

Study Groups focus on researching and learning about specific Australian plants (usually a genus or a related group of genera).
