Correa glabra var. glabra 'Coliban River'
This cultivar forms a small dense shrub to 1.2 x 1.2 m. All
other features are as for the species. The flowers are pale green and borne
in May to August.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar was selected for its small dense habit. The usual
form of the species is normally upright to spreading and 2-3m tall.
Grevillea 'Goldrush'
This cultivar is a small shrub to 0.8m tall by up to 1m wide.
It flowers in winter with yellow to pinkish flowers and a red style, though
the colours are subdued. The foliage is superficially like Grevillea
'Austraflora McDonald Park'
Diagnosis:
Grevillea 'Goldrush' is readily distinguished by the flower
colour. The flower colour is more subdued than Grevillea 'Austraflora
McDonald Park'. Grevillea 'Goldrush' is similar in flower to Grevillea
alpina 'Grampians Gold' but can be distinguished by the red style compared
with the yellow style of G. alpina 'Grampians Gold'. The yellow-green colouration of the stigmatic plate extends along theback of the stigma for about 4mm.
Correa reflexa var. speciosa 'Glenelg River Red'
Low-growing shrub to c. 25 cm x 1.8 m with a dense habit.
Branchlets sparsely tomentose with minute tan-coloured stellate hairs
becoming brown and glabrous with age w4th occasional short stellate hairs.
Simple cordate leaves, 18 mm x 10 mm, shortly petiolate. Leaf apices
obtuse, leaf bases cordate, venation reticulate, margins entire, slightly
undulate. Upper surfaces of mature leaves dark green and scabridulous.
Upper surfaces of young leaves dark green, slightly scabridulous with
occasional tan-coloured stellate hairs. Lower surfaces pale-green, sparsely
tomentose with tan coloured stellate hairs. Calyces hemispherical, 4 mm
high, tomentose with tan-coloured stellate hairs and shortly mucronate.
Corolla obconical 30 mm x 10 mm, bright red with yellow-green tips. Anthers
exerted, narrow oblong and obtuse. Peak flowering is from March to July in
most districts.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar conforms generally to descriptions for C. reflexa
var. speciosa by Wilson (1998). Wilson suggests that this variant from far
south-east SA is intermediate in morphology between C. reflexa var.
scabridula and the south-west Victorian variant of C. reflexa var. reflexa.
It is similar to C. 'Raelene Goldie' in flower colour but differs in leaf
size (27 mm x 16 mm) and flower size (33 mm x 9 mm). It varies in flower
colour from other C. reflexa var. reflexa cultivars, such as C. Dawn Glow',
C. Granny's Grave', C. 'Icicle' and C. 'Narrow Neil'.
Grevillea juniperina 'Molonglo'
A low spreading shrub 1m high x 1m+ across; branches pubescent, arcuate to declinate, the longer branches becoming decumbent; leaves 8-20mm long and 1-2mm wide, linear-subulate, somewhat angular, with pungent apices, the upper surfaces glabrous, the lower pubescent and almost
hidden by the revolute margins; flowers apricot in sessile racemes, terminal on short lateral branches; perianth tubes 10-12mm long, silky pubescent outside styles ca 30mm long red.
Diagnosis:
Grevillea juniperina 'Molonglo' differs from G. juniperina (yellow flowered prostrate form)in its spreading, not prostrate habit, its narrower, more pungent leaves with closely revolute margins and in its larger apricot flowers with red styles. It also differs from other forms of G. juniperina in its low spreading habit and in flower colour.
Grevillea 'Poorinda Hula'
It is a small dense shrub growing to a height of about 1m. The
pungent leaves are entire and are 15-35mm in length by about 3mm wide. The
upper leaf surface is shiny green with three distinct veins whilst the
undersurface is covered with silky hairs, particularly on new growth. The
flowers are formed in clusters and are brorne terminally on short
branchlets. The perianth is a rich deep pink and 7mm long whilst the
persistant style is bright pink and between 12-14mm long.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is different from G. trinervis in that perianth is
about half the length usually seen in G. trinervis. It is different from
G. linearis in that it is smaller in size than G. linearis which usually
grows up to a height of about 3m.
Grevillea 'Wakiti Gem'
This cultivar is a prostrate plant up to 2.5m across. Along with this compact habit it is very dense. The leaves are deeply divided and reminiscent of G. x gaudichaudii. Each leaf lobe ends in a pungent point. The inflorescences are terminal and between 4 and 6cm long and are a claret
colour. The flowering season is during the spring and summer months.
Diagnosis:
While similar in both foliage and flower to G. x gaudichaudii, Grevillea 'Wakiti Gem' does not have long, trailing stems. The plant is very compact and dense and only 1.5m across. Grevillea 'Green Glow', a cultivar produced from the same hybrid cross, differs in that it is a low
spreading shrub to 1m tall with very bright green foliage.
Grevillea 'Poorinda Firebird'
G.'Poorinda Firebird' can be expected to grow to a height of
approximately 2m. Leaves are dull green on the upper surface, densley
covered with silky hairs on the underside. Individual leaves are between
2.5 - 3cm long and about 4mm wide. Leaf edges are rolled under. Flowers,
scarlet and borne profusely in clusters. Each flower is about 1cm long.
Style is approximately 2.5cm in length. Flowers are said to be sterile.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar differs from its parents in that the length of the
leaves is intermediate between G. speciosa (1-5cm) and G. oleoides
(5-10cm). Leaf shape is not significant as various forms of both parents
have the same shape. Flower colour is not significantly different from
either parent.
Chamelaucium uncinatum 'Bundara Supreme White'
The habit of this cultivar is similar to the normal
Chamelaucium uncinatum. The flowers are pure white in colour.
Diagnosis:
This shrub has leaves and flowers slightly smaller than the
normal form of Chamelaucium uncinatum. The shrub is very dense and the
flowers are borne on the branch terminals. The original shrub was bred with
the cut flower market in mind. In the first year 2.2kg of blooms were cut
and in the second year 6.8kg were cut from the plant. This crop rate was
recorded at Bundara Nursery. The cultivar differs from other white forms of
C. uncinatum in that it produces a heavier crop of flowers.
Lechenaultia 'Park Pride'
Open prostrate habit 40-120mm high by 150-250mm wide with
potential to become wider. Short vertical flowering branches arise from the
main horizontal branches which radiate from a single stem. Leaves are
green, 5-6mm long and terete. Flowers tubular, tube 10mm long, split to
base along upper surface, pale purple pink. Lobes 5, 6-8mm long, lower 3
winged, upper 2 pointed with reduced wings, cream pink inner and wings.
Sepals 5, free, green, 4mm long, 1mm wide. Stamens 5, filaments 4mm long,
anthers basifixed, yellow. Stigma, indusium 2mm broad, purple pink, held at
mouth of corolla tube. Style 10mm long. Fruit 12-15mm long, terminated by
persistent sepals. Perpetual flowering in cultivation.
Diagnosis:
Characterised by prostrate habit with significantly improved
vigour over purported parents. The flower shape is intermediate between L.
floribunda and L. tubiflora. Colour is distinctive, not observed in either
parents or other Lechenaultia species. Perpetual flowering in cultivation.
Westringia 'Poorinda Pavane'
This cultivar is a bushy shrub up to 2.5m tall by 1.5-2m wide.
The leaves are from 10-25 long by up to 8mm wide and above though the young
growth does have a few fine white appressed hairs on the upper surface. The
undersurface is coated with short, white appressed hairs. The midribs are
prominent. The flowers are pale violet in colour. The calyx is hairy and
the corolla has a scattering of fine hairs. The flowering season is from
October to November.
