Albany Branch

Albany Branch of the Wildflower Society of Western Australia Inc

What the Albany Branch of the Wildflower Society of Western Australia is about.

Our Branch run several activities throughout the year. In spring we focus on the popular Albany Wildflower Show, celebrating the wide range of local wildflowers and those within our surrounding districts. Monthly open (to the public) meetings with guest speakers are followed by a Saturday Walk, usually reflecting the speaker’s topic. On the 10th day of the month, there is a short, late afternoon walk within the City Reserves, highlighting the importance of remnant bush. Weekly, Volunteers administer, manage & add to the vast collection within the Albany Herbarium.
