Point Ormond Reserve

The proximity of the Point Ormond Reserve coastal dune scrubs to the CBD makes the reserve one of the last, surviving, indigenous remnants in urban, Melbourne. Situated on a raised headland, the reserve provides exceptional views of the Melbourne skyline and a sweeping vista along Elwood's sandy beaches. Of the thirty nine indegnious plant species found in Point Ormond Reserve, five are regionally significant, Allocasurina vertillicata (Drooping Sheoak), Alyxia buxifolia (Sea Box), Corra alba (White Correa), Myoporum insulare (Common Boobialla) and Olearia axillaris (Coast Daisy-bush).
