Hi all,

Does anybody have access to any of the following? I'm trying to expand my archive and am particularly keen to take a look at the Simmons books and the journals...

Books:
    Armitage, I (1977), Acacias of New South Wales, Society for Growing Australian Plants, NSW Region.
    Elliot, W. R and Jones D (1982), The Encyclopaedia of Australian Plants, Vol.2, Lothian Publishing Company Pty Ltd, Melbourne.
    Hitchcock, M (1991), Wattle, Australian Government Publishing Service.
    Pedley, L (1987), Acacias in Queensland.
    Rogers, F, Field Guide to the Wattles of Victoria.
    Simmons, M (1981), Acacias of Australia, Vol.1, Thomas Nelson Australia.
    Simmons, M (1987), Growing Acacias, Kangaroo Press.
    Simmons, M (1988), Acacias of Australia, Vol.2, Penguin Books Australia.
    Tame, T (1992), Acacias of South-east Australia, Kangaroo Press.
    Wibley, D (1980), Acacias of South Australia, South Australian Government Printer.

Journals:
Several issues of the Society's journal "Australian Plants" are particularly useful for those interested in Acacia.

    Vol 10, No.82 March 1980; Microwave treatment of Acacia seed.
    Vol 11, No.91 June 1982; Wattles of the Grampians.
    Vol 14, No.114 March 1988; Outline of characteristics of Acacia.
    Vol 17, No.134 March 1993; Top End wattles for gardens.
    Vol 18, No.147 June 1986; Vegetative propagation of wattles.
    Vol 21, No.169 December 2001; Acacia leprosa 'Scarlet Blaze' - Victoria's Federation flower.
    Vol 22, No.180 September 2004; Entire issue.

They're all listed on the ANPSA website - http://anpsa.org.au/acacia6.html

Thanks very much and Happy Sunday!

...I'm looking at buying one or two of these, but the postage from Australia to the UK triples the price! Damn it...
