Tasmanian Endemics project

The Inala Jurassic Garden is committed to the conservation of Tasmanian endemic plants. We are regularly increasing the number of threatened Tasmanian endemic and alpine species that are at most risk of increased threat by wildfire and other effects of climate change and human impacts.

These species include King Billy Pine (Athrotaxis selaginoides), Pencil Pine (A. cupressoides) and the natural hybrid between these two species (A. x laxifolia), several members of the Podocarpaceae  such as the Huon Pine (Lagarostrobos franklinii), Mount Mawson Pine (Pherosphaera hookeriana), Mountain Plum Pine (Podocarpus lawrencei) and Creeping Strawberry Pine (Microcachrys tetragona). Other endemic Tasmanian montane/rainforest species such as Leatherwood (Eucryphia lucida), Dwarf leatherwood (E. milliganii), Native Laurel (Anopterus glandulosus), Fagus (Nothofagus gunnii) and all Tasmanian Richea species are in the collection.
