Coastal Plants

Enables identification of common coastal plants on the west coast of Australia.

NACC’s Coastal Plant Pocket Guide is an easy to use identification app for common plants found along Western Australia’s coast from Kalbarri to Guilderton (although most species covered have a much broader distribution). It is intended as a convenient resource for both community groups and coastal managers seeking to revegetate and control weeds in coastal dunes. The app features;

• A Table of Contents (TOC) with large pictures for quick reference;

• Five simple TOC categories;

o Native/Weed;

o Growth habit;

o Aboriginal usage;

o Location; and

o Flower colour.

• Colour photographs of whole plants and close-ups of key features;

• Species descriptions and distributions;

• Detailed information on propagation methods for native species and control methods for weed species;

• Comprehensive information on Aboriginal uses of coastal plants;

• Information on dune formation and care;

• Glossary and Reference sections.
