List of plants in cultivation in the Botanic Gardens, RabauL.

Including a catalogue of the material available for distribution.

Abstract

Amended nomenclature has been used except, in cases where the old name is long established and well known. Plants have been divided, as far as possible, into classes according to their uses and habits of growth, e.g., “ Trees, flowering ” include such trees as are particularly notable for their floral display, while other trees (which have no major economic use) are grouped under “ Trees, general". Flowering and seeding periods are given but are approximate only and vary in accordance with the yearly variations of season and rainfall. Every effort is made to fulfil orders, but the Department cannot guarantee the supply of all material listed. Advice is always available as to the suitability for, and the cultivation of plants in the various districts of the Territory.
