Dense shrub, 1.8m (h) x 1m (w) Flowers: Deep pink, 20mm x 8mm, from Aug-Oct Foliage colour: Greyish green Comparators: Eremophila calorhabdos, E. splendens Reasons for distinctiveness: Thought to be a hybrid between Eremophila calorhabdos and E. splendens. Eremophila ‘Beryl's Gem’ is a compact shrub whereas E. calorhados is quite open and upright and E. splendens has orange flowers.

Dense groundcover with upright leaves, 30mm x 3m in diameter, flowers large, burgundy brown, slightly bulbous, 25-30mm. Flowering period: Spring to autumn and intermittent throughout the year Leaves - upright, dull grey green Comparators: Thought to be a Eremophila biserrata hybrid. Eremophila biserrata is a ground hugging prostrate plant with dark green serrated leaves which grow closely together along the stems of the plant. The corolla is yellow-green with purple strip along the top of the tube. Flowering time is from late spring to mid-summer.

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.

Dense upright shrub, 2m (h) x 2.5m (w), leaves: grey, flowers: buds orange/yellow, petals deep pink, 25mm x 20mm, Aug-Nov. Possibly an E glabra hybrid crossed with either E compacta or E nivea. Both the flower colour and size is unusual for Eremophila glabra.

This cultivar grows into a compact, low shrub from .6m to .9m in height by up to 1m wide. The flowers are found in spring and are yellow, tubular, with consipicious red spots in the throat of the flowers. The flowers are plus/minus 30mm in length. The buds before they open are also quite conspicuous. While young they are green yellow turning to yellow just before they open. The buds contrast well against the bright green glossy foliage. The flowers are axillary and are borne prolifically. Diagnosis: This cultivar differs form the more usual form of Eremophila maculata in its lower and more compact form and its yellow flowers.

This cultivar is a prostrate to decumbent shrub .5m tall by 1 to 2m wide. The non-interlacing branches are purplish in colour, turning yellow brown as they age. The branches are warty in appearance and otherwise glabrous. The leaves are narrow elliptic in shape. The flowers are solitary and carmine in colour while inside they are rose coloured but marked with prominent carmine spots except at the tips of the lobes. The lobes have long white wispy hairs up to 9mm long. The flowering season in Adelaide is from October to November. Diagnosis: E. maculata 'Carmine Star' can be distinguished from the common form of E. maculata in eastern Australia by it's decumbent sprawling habit with non-interlacing branches. Other notes: The cultivar is widespread in cultivation in Adelaide at the time of writing (May 1985). It has good drought resistance but may burn in heavier frosts. It is also known to be tolerant of humidity. Vegetative means must be used to preserve the cultivar form.

The plant from which the material was selected was about 16m tall. However, as with other forms of Eucryphia lucida when grown in cultivation, it will most likely only attain a height of 5 to 7m. The flowers, which occur in the summer months are a soft pink deepening to rose in the centre of the flower. They are 4cm in diameter. Diagnosis: The flower colour is the distinguishing feature of this cultivar being pink instead of white as is usual with E. lucida.

Strappy leaved suckering shrub with variegated leaves to about 0.3m in diameter.

Dwarf shrub to around 1m with yellow flowers in Spring.

Large shrub or small tree to 4-5m with scented weeping foliage and red/yellow ball flowers from August to October.
