Grevillea 'Lawson Queen'
Open shrub, 1m (h) x 1m (w)
Flowers:
Deep pink
Foliage colour:
Dark Green
Comparators:
Grevillea sericea, G. oleoides
Reasons for distinctiveness:
Thought to be a Grevillea sericea hybrid,
possibly with G. oleoides which also occurs in the area. The differences
are in the deepness of the pink in the flower colour and the leaf
characteristics. The very best-coloured G. sericea comes nowhere near it.
The leaves are much wider than G. sericea. The leaf is a much darker green
than G. sericea. Grevillea sericea can be quite variable in leaf, and for a
while it was thought it could possibly be a new species however it does not
set seed suggesting it may be sterile hybrid.
It has been in the applicant's garden since it was first collected.
Hakea 'Kincora'
Hakea 'Kincora' grows into an erect shrub 2 m tall by 2 m
across. Branches have an erect, arching habit. Leaves are linear, 95mm long
by 12mm wide, acuminate. Racemes are globular, approximately 50mm by 50mm
in size, clustered along the stems, and profuse. Styles are creamy white,
perianth are bright pink. Fruit have not been observed. The main flowering
period is from May to July.
Diagnosis:
Hakea 'Kincora' is similar to Hakea 'Burrendong Beauty' but can
be distinguished by its erect habit, and linear leaves.
Prostanthera 'Mauve Mantle'
Low spreading shrub, 1m (h) x 2m (w)
Flowers:
Mauve, 15mm in diameter, from late winter to spring (Melbourne),
late Spring (Canberra) October to November
Foliage colour: Dark green
Comparators:
Prostanthera denticulata
Reasons for distinctiveness: Although the parentage of this cultivar is unknown it does seem to have affinities with Prostanthera denticulata.
Prostanthera 'Mauve Mantle' is a dense prostrate to low growing groundcover with dark green leaves whereas Prostanthera denticulata is a more open, to upright shrub with spreading to erect branches and mid green leaves.
Eremophila 'Summertime Blue'
Large dense intricate shrub, 2m x 3m, flowers lilac with a white throat, 25-30mm, summer
Diagnosis: ntermediate between the two suggested parents.
Comparators:
Eremophila divaricata is a medium intricate shrub with small purple blue flowers while Eremophila polyclada is a large open shrub with white flowers.
Grevillea 'Abracadabra'
Large open shrub, 2.0m (h) x 2.5m (w)
Flowers:
Axillary racemes of bright red and cream flowers from Jul-Jan
Foliage colour:
Bluish Grey-green
Comparators:
Grevillea ‘Merinda Gordon’, G. insignis
Reasons for distinctiveness:
Grevillea ‘Abracadabra’ differs from
Grevillea 'Merinda Gordon' in its larger, blue-green leaves and its larger,
red and cream flowers. It differs from Grevillea insignis in its deeply
lobed leaves which are blue green, and in its flowers which are red and
cream.
Correa 'Vanilla Ice'
Dense, spreading low-growing shrub approximately 50 cm high x
1 m wide, with strongly veined mid green ovate to cordate leaves with
obtuse tips, 32 mm x 20 mm in size, glabrous and somewhat scabrous on top,
pale green and velvety underneath with defined venation. The tubular
corolla is creamy white with a light covering of light tan coloured
stellate hairs at the tips, which are recurved, exposing pale pink on the
inside of the petal tips. Stamens are as long as the petals and barely
exerted. The green papery calyx is square in cross-section with 4
triangular pointed lobes. Petioles and pedicels are 2-3 mm long. Flowers
Summer to Winter with spasmodic flowering all through the year.
Diagnosis:
Thought to be a hybrid between C. alba and C. calycina, C.
‘Vanilla Ice’ differs from both these species in both leaf and flower
colour and form. C. calycina leaves are longer, elliptical and thinner and
the flowers are lime green in colour. The calyx is also larger. C. alba var
alba has grayish obovate leaves and white flowers with strongly recurved
petals split to the unlobed calyx.
