RE: propagating South African and Australian shrubs

The National Botanical Institute  at Kirstenbosch has a series of multipage pamphlets called the Kirstenbosch Gardening Series.

 

I have one called “Grow Restios” and they have similar publications for Proteas, Agapanthus, Cycads and Succulents.  Mine is dated 1998.  There may be more in the series now.

 

They cover propagation, cultivation and a plant guide to the family plus references.

 

Nice piece of work.  Got it at Strybing, I think.

 

Cheers,

Bracey

Does anyone have a good reference for propagation methods for South African and Australian myrtaceae and proteaceae?

 

Thanks!
