This list was put together following a combined field trip of the Bushcare volunteers and Blue Mountains Conservation Society’s Plant Study Group to the Reserve on the 22nd June 2024. It is based on the list in Blue Mountains City Council’s Deanei Reserve Plan of Management, 1995, but now contains additional species and taxonomic updates.
