Callistemon salignus 'Great Balls of Fire'
Growing to a height of 1.75m with a spread of 1.5m, C. 'Great Balls of Fire' was bred for its particularly dense compact habit and the intense red hues of its new emerging growth.
Callistemon viminalis 'Prolific'
A small tree to 6m high by 4m across with pendulous branch
tips. The leaves are narrowly elliptical to 50mm long by 7mm wide. The
bright red flowers are borne in spikes clustered near the branch ends. Each
spike is about 80mm long by 40mm across. They are seen in late spring and
summer and again in autumn in the eastern states and from June to October
in Western Australia.
Diagnosis:
The only significant differences between this and other forms of
C. viminalis are its prolific flowering habit and the flowering spikes
borne in clusters at the branch ends. The branch ends are not as pendulous
as some forms. It is not readily identifiable.
Callistemon 'Woolomin Sparkler'
A medium-sized shrub to 3m high by 2m across with compact
habit and dense foliage. The leaves are narrowly oblanceolate to 80mm long
by 7mm wide tapering towards the base. The apex is pointed. The red flowers
are borne in spikes clustered near the branch ends. The anthers are yellow.
Each spike is about 80mm long by 60mm across from specimen, although spikes
to 120mm long are claimed by the originator. Flowers over a long period
starting September, peak October and again March and April.
Diagnosis:
Differs from C. salignus pink form in having:
* Red flowers
* Flower spikes borne in clusters near the branch ends
* Extended flowering period
Differs from C. 'Harkness' in having:
* Shorter flower spikes
* Shorter leaves
* More upright habit
Differs from C. citrinus in having:
* Lighter green leaves
* Flower spikes in clusters
* Extended flowering period
Callitris 'Golden Zero'
Diagnosis:
The plant is identical to its parents except that the foliage is
golden yellow throughout the year.
Carpobrotus glaucescens 'CAR10'
Prostrate creeping succulent that has long trailing stems up to 2m. Commonly called Pigface, this native Carpobrotus produces large deep pink flowers in spring and autumn with purple stems.
Chamelaucium uncinatum 'Dowell'
This cultivar grows vigorously and at maturity attains a
height of 2m with an equal spread. The flowers are large with full petals
and measure ± 20mm across. The petals are light purple in colour and
recurve backwards as the flower ages. The staminal collar in this variety
is also large.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is distinguished by the flower colour.
Chamelaucium uncinatum 'University'
This cultivar is a low growing form of Chamelaucium uncinatum
. It has an open habit and sparse, woody branches. Although flowering is
less prolific than on most forms the individual flowers are a spectacular
colour, opening deep pink and darkening with age to a deep purple. The
flowers are ca. 20mm in diameter with average to large petals.
