We have recently been visiting local farms looking at potential project sites for this years Box Gum grassy Woodland project. It has been wonderful to see so many groundcover species after the recent dry years. Did you know that there are over 400 plant species found across the Box Gum Grassy Woodlands range and in a good quality patch you can find between 60 and 110 species.
The groundcover plants, such as forbs, grasses and sedges make up most of this diversity and we thought you all might like to see some of the plants that have recently been seen. All of these photos have been taken by me from around our region. Enjoy!!
Feel free to send through any pictures to midlachlanlandcare@gmail.com and we can try to have them identified for you.
