Newsletter history

With more than1000 members,our aims are to understand our plants, to share information on how to recognise them, to protect the bushland in which they grow; and to propagate and grow them.

We come from all sections of the community. A shared wonder of Western Australia's flora has brought together professional and amateur botanists and the interested enthusiasts. It is this shared expertise from throughout the community that is the strength of the Society.
We publish a quarterly newsletter which lists the activities of the various branches as well as providing in-depth articles on a wide range of topics associated with wildflowers. In addition, members receive the full colour quarterly Australian Plants. This is an authoritative National publication focusing on plant identification and propagation.
Addressing a meeting
From time to time, members work with Government Departments such as the Department of Conservation and Land Management, especially the WA Herbarium, The Department of Environmental Protection, and Kings Park and Botanic Garden.
At monthly meetings, each of the branches are addressed by local and visiting experts on various aspects of our wildflowers

The Northern Suburbs branch has extensive propagation facilities available to members. Several branches have their own libraries with books available to members

 

ABOUT OUR SOCIETY
We are an "umbrella";organisation: all members are automatically members of all branches.
There are branches in Perth and in the country - all offering a host of different activities. A general Management Committee services the whole Society.
The Wildflower Society is a member of the Association of Societies for Growing Australian Plants. In each of the other states there is a region of the Society for Growing Australian Plants and they have many of the aims of the Wildflower Society.
We run bushland excursions from half a day to a weekend, regular practical sessions on plant identification, propagation, garden design and bushland plant survey; and an annual two day state conference including a seminar day.
We would really like you to join us. Feel free to attend some of
our meetings as a visitor and if you decide you would like to join, click for a membership application. There you will find a form which you can print and mail to us and also an electronic form..
