Philotheca myoporoides 'Winter Rouge'
Bushy shrub to about 1.5 metres high by a similar width.
Leaves to 1 cm wide by 5 cm long.
Flowers: late winter to spring, pink buds opening to white flowers approximately 2 cm in diameter. The underside of the petals displays a diffuse pink colouration, predominantly on the midrib.
Foliage colour: deep green
Comparators: the closest known comparator is Philotheca myoporoides 'Profusion'.
Reasons for distinctiveness:
Philotheca myoporoides 'Winter Rouge' differs notably from Philotheca myoporoides 'Profusion' by the presence of distinctive pink buds and the generally smaller stature.
Philotheca 'Poorinda'
Eriostemon 'Poorinda' grows to 1.5m tall and about .8m across.
The branches are glabrous, verrucose, and of medium density. The leaves are obovate with a broadly obtuse apex and about 4cm long and 1.2cm wide. The lower surface is dotted with numerous small glandular verrucosities.
The inflorescence is an axillary pedunculae cluster of up to four flowers, each cluster measuring about 1.8cm across. The buds are bright pink opening to white with a pale pink tinge where the colour shows through. Flowering occurs from spring to summer. It has been in cultivation since 1965.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar attains a height intermediate between P. verrucose (0.3-.6m) and P. myoporoides (up to 2m). The leaves are in the shorter range of P. myoporoides which can be from 1.5-11cm long and they are much larger than P. verrucosa which has leaves up to 1.5cm.
Philotheca 'Poorinda' is much less prominent than P. myoporoides. The flowers are in larger clusters than P. verrucosa where they are usually solitary but they are fewer than for P. myoporoides which may have 4-6 flowers per cluster. The petals are pink in bud and white when open like those of P. verrucose but a little longer, being closer in size to P. myoporoides.
Philotheca verrucosa 'J. Semmens'
This cultivar grows to 0.6m tall by 0.6m wide and its foliage
is often sparse. The flowers are 15mm to 25mm across and consist of three
layers of petals which surround petaloid stamens. The flowering season is
August to October. All other characteristics of the cultivar are as for P.
verrucosa.
Diagnosis:
The cultivar can be easily distinguished from the usual form of
P. verrucosa by the multi-petalled flowers.
Diagnosis:
Other multi-petalled forms of P. verrucosa have been recorded,
but material is not available for examination for difference. Written
descriptions of the various forms appear similiar.
