Every two years, the Australian Native Plant Society (Australia) (ANPSA) awards a professional and an amateur medal to people who have made an outstanding contribution to knowledge of Australian plants.

Glenn Leiper
The amateur winner this year is our own Glenn Leiper – for many years a passionate supporter of Plunkett Regional Park, and many Park users over the years have enjoyed guided walks led by Glenn, enhanced by his encyclopaedic knowledge of local plants.
Glenn is also co-author of “Mangroves to Mountains“, the definitive guide to the native plants of south-east Queensland, including Plunkett Regional Park.
