Hibiscus 'Aussie Pink'
Fast growing bushy shrub 1.5 - 2 metres in diameter with large mid to light pink fragrant flowers in Spring and Summer.
Imperata cylindrica 'ICL200'
This grass has reddish foliage in Autumn and Winter with green foliage in the warmer months with 1m high long lasting plume from April to August.
Isopogon anemonifolius 'Woorikee 2000'
Small compact shrub 0.5m(h) x 0.5m(w) with yellow cone flowers in Spring.
Kunzea 'Badja Carpet'
It is a dense prostrate plant spreading up to 4m and reaching
a height of 600mm. The dark green leaves are small being up to 7mm long by
3mm wide. New stems are dark red in colour. The white flowers are produced
terminally in small clusters on short branchlets. New growth originates
from the centre of the flower cluster.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is different form the known normal forms of
Kunzea capitata in its prostrate habit and white flowers. Kunzea capitata
is usually an erect or rounded shrub to1.5m in height with mauve flowers.
Leptospermum 'Aphrodite'
A medium to tall shrub with lush green foliage. Forming a dense bushy plant approximately 2.5m high and 2m across. It has masses of bright pink flowers in spring.
Anigozanthos 'Unity'
Anigozanthos 'Unity' has flower stems to ca. 1.5m tall, mostly
glabrous with a few scattered plumose purple hairs becoming more dense
towards the flowers. The flowers are in simple racemes on pedicels to ca.
6mm long. The woolly hairs on the ovary are red with some black tips. The
hairs become less dense towards the perianth lobes allowing equal dominance
of yellow green hairs. The perianth tube is ca. 40mm long, glabrous inside
above the middle and with simple hairs below the middle some of these with
sellate tips. The perianth lobes are ca. 10mm long with plumose silvery
grey hairs inside. The anthers are about the same length as the filaments,
the connective tipped with a small gland-like appendage. There are ca. 5
ovules per locule.
Diagnosis:
The flowers of Anigozanthos 'Unity' are similar in shape to A.
rufus but are longer with a slightly more prominent ovary. The flowers are
a much darker red than A. rufus and less uniform in colour with the upper
half of the tube showing yellow green hairs more the colour of those in A.
flavidus. Unlike A. flavidus, the stems of Anigozanthos 'Unity' are hairy
but the hairs are darker and there are more of them than in A. flavidus
and they are fewer than in A. rufus. There are two other cultivars form the
same hybrid cross. Anigozanthos 'Red Cross' and Anigozanthos 'Velvet
Harmony'. Anigozanthos 'Red Cross' is of a similar height with individual
flowers ca. 30mm long. It is most easily distinguished from Anigozanthos
'Unity' by the presence of a very distinct bright yellow patch at the base
of the flower. Anigozanthos 'Velvet Harmony' has flowers with a tube ca.
25-27mm long which appear a darker colour due to the thicker hairs on the
perianth. The flower stem is also more branched in Anigozanthos 'Velvet
Harmony'.
Anigozanthos 'Charm'

Formerly A. 'Elegant Charmer'
This cultivar is a neat 0.5m plant with glossy green leaves to
0.3 m. Flower stems are 1m and branched. Flowers are borne in September to
November and are reddish orange with cream anthers.
Diagnosis:
A.flavidus grows to 1.0m tall by 1.0m wide. Flowers from October to
February. Leaves are glabrous. The flower stems are 2.0m, branched and
smooth tubular, 3-4cm densely hairy. The lobes are not turned back, colours
are yellow-green, red, pink, yellow and green. Common in a wide range of
soils and climate but frost damage can occur. Moist light to medium soils
and partial to full sun seems best. Propagation is by seed or division.
A.preissii grows to 0.6m tall by 0.3m wide. Flowers from August to
November. Leaves are deciduous; sparse, nearly terete, finely pointed.
Flower stems are 1.0m long, tubular, 5-6cm woolly hairs. Two terminal
clusters , lobed but not reflexed. Claw-like in appearance, orange to
yellow and red colour.Cultivation is difficult, prefers moist and
well-drained soil in partial to full sun. Divide regularly to promote
vigorous growth. Does well in containers. Propagation is by seed or
division.
Anigozanthos 'Charm' is a manipulated hybrid growing to 0.6m in height.
Flowers from September to November. Leaves are glossy green, 0.3m in
length. Flower stems are reddish-orange and the anthers are cream. A
feature is the cultivar's resistance to snails and ink disease. Propagation
is by vegetative means only.

Anigozanthos 'Little Jewel'
This cultivar has branched inflorescences to 0.4m tall with scattered red plumose hairs increasing on the upper half. The flowers are in a simple terminal raceme with pedicles to about 7mm long. They are
covered with dense plumose hairs which are dense on the ovary and upper side and a green- yellow on the lower side. The perianth tube is about 45mm long subtended by a swollen ovary. The tube is glabrous on the inside above the middle with scattered orange plumose hairs below. The perianth lobes are about 10mm long with the lower ones dividing more deeply. The lobes are covered with green-yellow plumose hairs on the inside. The anthers are bright yellow on green-yellow slightly shorter filaments, the connective tipped with a glandlike appendage. The ovules are more than 12 per locule.
