Description

This is a discussion group for lovers of the genus Banksia and the closely allied dryandras, marvellous plants of the family proteaceae (If you're here you're probably already an enthusiast), how to grow them, look at issues (wish list: grafting WA banksias and/or dryandras, cure for phytophthora) banksias as bonsai, or any other new developments, the idea being to add to the rather general knowledge base about cultivating these wonderful australian plants for gardens everywhere.
