Updates to the Roleybushcare Flora Database

19th Feb 2023
Have you checked out our Roleybushcare Flora Database recently? It is worthwhile having another look because Lee and John have improved the system by adding more search areas.
 
You can now process a search on botanical family, genus, species, common name, flower colour (for multi-coloured flowers, only one of the
colours need to be added), month of flowering, category of plant (e.g. climber, grass, small shrub, orchid etc), dieback resistance, reserve name and whether it is native to Roleystone/Karragullen or native to area within 5 km of Roleystone/Karragullen.
 
Have a try, you won't regret it.
