Post photos of the Flowers, Seed, Leaves, Fruit, Form
If someone has already added that species, just add to (or edit) their page so there isn’t lots of pages for the one species
Post your plant pics and stories as a separate species page under the family name.
Use the parent tab to place your species page under the right family.
Make sure you acknowledge yourself as an author and photographer!
And don’t worry if you stuff it up – the editors should be able to fix it for you.
Plus…. if you don’t know what the plant is – put up a post in “What plant is that”
and extra keen SKIPA’s can try and figure it out for you. Try and include as
much pictorial and written information as possible,size, shape, etc.
Happy Posting!

Can anyone put me onto commercial growers of Native plants from the North West please if there are any, if not even exotic commercial nurseries that may grow some natives would suffice.
Hi John, there are several small growers of native plants in Broome, email skipas@environskimberley.org.au for details about how to contact Tom Harley or Max Godwin.
Hi
Saw a purple flowered plant/bush today on Argyle diamond mine which has big leaves, a bit cabbagy in appearance but they had a fruit it which was soft like a deflated balloon. in side it was a white fiber with a harder core which was scaly.
Any idea what it is?
Could it be Calotropis gigantea? (search for images on the web to see) Also called Giant Rubber Bush it is a weed native to asia, that has become a problem in places like the Ord.
I have just done the canning stock route and fell in love with the desert oak. My question is, is there anybody in Broome who grows these trees. Or maybe how to grow these wonderful and beautiful trees.
