Seeds available from APS Vic

By Heather Miles

Dear members, 

A reminder that APS Vic kindly offered us access to their seedbank. 

Here are the details: 

SEED LIST 2022

The full seed list is only printed in the March issue of Growing Australian each year. Additions and deletions will appear in other issues.

An expanded seed list (updated each quarter) can be found in the members’ section of the APS Vic website. The list includes common names, growth form and height, to make selection of seeds easier.

All current members are entitled to six packets of seed from the list of available species, upon receipt of each quarterly edition of Growing Australian. To order seeds:

  1. Write down a list of your six preferred species and then also include a further list of alternatives in case one or more species are no longer available.

  2. Prepare a self-addressed envelope that includes postage. This envelope should preferably be DL size (22cm x 11cm) as it is difficult to fit seed pockets in anything smaller. The postage currently required is a $1.10 stamp or equivalent concession stamp. If requesting a seed that is of a Brachychiton species, then please provide $2.20 of postage due to the large size of its seeds.

  3. Place both the list and self-addressed envelope in an envelope marked to APS Victoria Seed Bank, c/- Marj Seaton, 36 Voumard St, Oakleigh South, Vic 3167

  4. The Seed Bank Curator will send you 6 packets in order of your choice. If any of these have run out in the meantime, you will be sent those species that are listed as alternatives by you. Up to six alternatives are recommended.

Email enquiries can be directed to seedbank@apsvic.org.au; however, orders must still be made by post.
