The Purpose of the society -

​

Australian Plant Society members are interested in the development of all aspects of Australian plant species.

​

This is achieved through -

  • Promoting an interest in the growing and propagating of native plants.

  • Encouraging the recognition and development of Australian landscapes using Australian plants.

  • An endeavour to improve Australian plants as garden subjects.

  • Encouraging the preservation of our Australian flora.

  • Encouraging the nursery industry in the propagation and supply of Australian plants.

  • Provide support for the dissemination of information on all aspects of growing Australian plants.

Our group is based in the Latrobe Valley in west Gippsland, servicing the area around Morwell, Moe, Churchill and Traralgon.
