It is a dense prostrate shrub growing to a height of about 10mm with a spread of about 2m. The small round leaves are up to 8mm long by 6-8mm wide. The leaf tip is often indented. The green upper leaf surface has distinct veining while the underside is silvery and covered with long silky hairs. New foliage is distinctly grey. The small and insignificant flowers are borne in clusters at the end of the branchlets. Diagnosis: This cultivar is different from other forms of Spyridium parvifolium in its prostrate habit.

G. 'Poorinda Illumina' grows to a dense shrub about 1m tall and 1.5m across. Its distinguishing feature is its arched, cascading branches. The foliage is grey-green which contrasts well with the dark pink/red flowers. The leaves are about 1.8cm long and 2mm wide with pungent tips and revolute edges. The flowers are profuse, in terminal clusters on short branchlets. The perianth is deep pink grading to pale cream on the limb with matching pink styles. Diagnosis: This cultivar bears a great resemblance to G. lavandulacea which has resulted in confusion over its identity. It differs in that G. 'Poorinda Illumina' has arching branches and the individual flowers are about 8mm long as compared with those of G. lavandulacea which are about 1cm long.

Shrub to 5m, spreading to 4m. Flowering is almost continuous throughout the year. Flowers occur in terminal crowded cylindrical inflorescences c. 11-15cm long x 5cm diameter; perianth 10mm long x 3-4mm wide, outer surface has a moderately dense indumentum of appressed and erect wavy white hairs, subduing the flower colour. The inner surface is smooth and glabrous. The limb is covered in dense, erect wavy white hairs. The pistil is 32-38mm long; ovary sessile, covered in dense flattened white hairs; nectary prominent, burgundy in colour, with a prominently scalloped margin; style glabrous with a prominent hoof-like pollen- presenter. The foliage is open and is grey-green in colour. Leaves are pinnately divided into c.7-9 sub-opposite lobes; lobes linear -lanceolate c. 4-9mm wide, 40-8-mm long; overall leaf length c.11-17cm. Young leaves are grey-green on upper surface with an indumentum of semi-appressed white hairs most of which are shed on maturity. Mature leaves are dark green on the upper surface. The lower surface has a dense appressed indumentum of silvery white hairs. Diagnosis: This cultivar is distinguished from its parent Grevillea 'Misty Pink' by the deeper colour of the flowers. Its closest comparator is Grevillea 'Sylvia' which is also a much paler pink.

Melaleuca 'Golden Gem' varies from other Melaleuca bracteata in that it exhibits on attractive golden colour to the tips of the branchlets. This golden colour is particularily evident during the spring months. Note: The name 'Golden Gem' has been trade marked. This cultivar has previously appeared in print in "Good Gardening" Number 10, Spring/Summer 1972 page 8 and also in "Bulletin Number 1, Save the Trees Campaign, Qld September 20, 1971 and "West Australian Gardener", Winter 1975 Volume 6 Number 2 page 2.

This cultivar is a tall, dense spreading shrub that grows + 3m high by +4m across. The leaves are deeply lobed and are + 115mm long by 25mm wide at the widest point. The individual lobes are pungent and 2-3mm wid. The upper surface of the leaves are light green while the underside is covered with dense silky hairs . The leaf edges are rolled under. The flowers are of the 'toothbrush'type and are borne in the leaf axils. The perianth is red and 5mm long whilst the prominent light pink styles are 25mm long with a yellow green stigma. The receptacle is slightly villous, and the peduncle is covered with light brown hairs. Diagnosis: This cultivar differs fron G. 'Poorinda Blondie' in that its leaves are more deeply divided and are only half as wide, and the flowers are a much deeper red in colour.

The habit is undefined. Branchlets terete and scarcely angled. Leaves alternate, narrow oblong-spathulate and narowing gradually towards the base, 8-15mm long and 1.5-3mm wide on slender petioles ca. 1-2mm long, surface smooth, secondary nerves obscure. Central nerve usually raised below and margins of leaves slightly recurved. Flowers star-like, solitary, axillary or terminal on very short axillary shoots, 15-18mm across. Sepals 5, free, broadly ovate, ca. 1mm long, imbricate and reflexed. Petals 5, free, overlapping, broadly ovate 8-9mm long, smooth but with very fine longitudinal striations. Anthers reported to be yellow. Flowering spring and summer. Diagnosis: Characterised by the "star-like" flowers. It differs from the typical Crowea exalata in the smaller white rather than pale mauve or pink flowers, narrower and much shorter leaves.

It is a low spreading shrub growing to a height of about 1m. The pungent leaves are long and narrow and about 25 mm long by 2-3mm wide. The upper surface is shiny green whilst the underside is covered with dense silky hairs. The very woolly flowers are formed into dense clusters and are produced terminally on short side laterals. The perianth is bright pink and about 16mm long and the styles are about 25mm long. Diagnosis: This cultivar is different from most forms of Grevillea juniperina as it has bright pink flowers instead of the usual for the species of red, orange or yellow flowers.

The leaves are very deeply lobed and are about 200mm long by approximately 150mm wide. Individual lobes are very fine being 1.5-4m wide. Occasionally the lobes are sub-divided into two. The upper surface is shiny green whilst the underside is covered with silvery hairs. The leaf edges are rolled under. The flowers encircle the stem and are produced terminally. The rachis or stem on which the flowers are borne extends a short distance beyond the last floret as in G. sessilis. The bright yellow flower heads, which are produced in profusion over a long period, are about 120mm long by about 80mm wide. The very woolly perianth tube is about 8mm long. The styles, which are the colourful parts of the inflorescence, are about 30cm long. Diagnosis: This cultivar is different from its parents in that the foliage is intermediate with perhaps a greater affinity to G. pteridifolia. The habit also tends to be intermediate. The flower colour differs in that it is lighter than is usually seen in G. pteridifolia and a much richer colour than is usual for G. sessilis. The flowers encircle the rachis as in G. sessilis but not in G. pteridifolia.

Medium shrub to 1.8m in diameter. White flowers and pink fruit

Moderately dense spreading shrub 1.5m in diameter with large cream pink/red terminal racemes for most of the year. Diagnosis:The grouping characteristics used to identify the most similar varieties of common knowledge were – Leaf: margin pinnatisect. Inflorescence: position terminal, form cylindrical. Flower colour: intensifying from cream before anthesis, to pink or red after anthesis. On the basis of these grouping characteristics the following varieties were chosen as comparators: ‘Ned Kelly’ and ‘Superb’. ‘Robyn Gordon’ was also considered for its similar parentage but later excluded as it has red flowers and the early stage colours do not include cream.
