The Dryandra Study Group is one of over 20 such Groups whose aims are to further knowledge about the cultivation, propagation and conservation of specific Australian plants. The Dryandra Study Group has been in operation for over 20 years and in that time has produced 30 informative newsletters documenting the studies carried out by its members (most of whom are keen amateurs with no formal horticultural or botanical knowledge). As in all study groups, the members' work is carried out in their own homes and gardens and in their own spare time.
In 1996 the group produced an "Illustrated Key to Dryandra" based on the revision of the genus by Alex George and including diagrams of the leaves of each species. This is an invaluable guide to anyone trying to identify Dryandra species in the wild, or in cultivation. The key is available for $5 which includes postage within Australia.
For further information of the Study Group or if you would like to purchase the "Illustrated Key", please contact the Society.
