Actinotus helianthi 'White Romance'
A tall thin selection with large flowers. Herbaceous shrub to 0.9m(h) x 0.3m(w) variable with pale grey hairy leaves and the daisylike flower heads are greenish and the petal like bracts are cream to white with greenish tips which are 30mm in diameter. . Flowering occurs in spring
Agonis flexuosa 'Belbra Gold'
This cultivar is a leaf colour form of Agonis flexuosa
(Spreng) Schau. It is a dense shrub that grows to ca. 5m tall by 5m wide.
As the leaves first appear they have a reddish tinge but this quickly
changes to a pale yellow forming a golden crown on the plant. As the leaves
mature there is once again a colour change, as they revert to green or a
pale yellow mottled with green. Shortly after this last change the mature
leaves are dropped from the plant. When viewed from a short distance the
plant is a distinct golden colour. The colour of the foliage can be
affected by the amount of light intensity. The golden colour is more
pronounced during summer months in full light. The other features of the
cultivar correspond with those of Agonis flexuosa.
Diagnosis:
A. 'Belbra Gold' is readily distinguished from the usual A.
flexuosa by its foliage colour and its ultimate height, the cultivar only
growing to 5m. It can be distinguished easily from A. flexuosa 'Variegata'
as the variegation is different. A. flexuosa 'Variegata' has leaves with
yellow margins and a green centre as compared to all yellow or yellow
mottled green of A. 'Belbra Gold'.
Comparators:
Agonis flexuosa 'Variegata' (ACRA Number 4) held at
the Herbarium, National Botanic Gardens, Canberra.
Agonis flexuosa 'Marks Mini'
A compact dwarf form of Agonis flexuosa and white flowers in Summer.
Agonis flexuosa 'Midnight Shadow'
Compact small tree or large shrub with weeping dark burgundy new growth which turns deep green as it matures. Flowers white in Summer. Diagnosis: Differs from Agonis flexuosa ‘Jervis Bay After Dark’ in that while new growth is the same dark burgundy the mature leaves are yellow green.
Alyogyne huegelii 'West Coast Gem'
Compact shrub, 2.0–3.5 m (h) x 2.0–4 m (w); flowers 80–100 mm across x about same long, deep bluish-purple, can be produced most of year but especially Spring to Autumn; leaves 70–120 mm long x about same, palmate with slender petiole, broadly 5-lobed green.
Anigozanthos 'Bush Inferno'
A compact medium sized variety, forming a good sized clump. Bold red larger flowers mainly in spring and summer, spot flowering at other times, bird attracting and great cut flowers. Very good in Mediterranean climates, not as vigorous in humid climates where they are best grown in pots.
Anigozanthos 'Bush Inferno'
A compact medium sized variety, forming a good sized clump. Bold red larger flowers mainly in spring and summer, spot flowering at other times, bird attracting and great cut flowers. Very good in Mediterranean climates, not as vigorous in humid climates where they are best grown in pots.
Boronia 'Telopea Valley Star'
Note:
Formerly B. 'Telopea Star'
This cultivar grows to plus/minus 1m tall by plus/minus 60cm
wide. It is fast growing, has an erect habit, and has quite long distances
(6-8cm) between nodes. These long internodal distances can tend to make the
shrub look sparse. The cultivar has round stems, and the newer growth has a
covering of fine brown hairs. The leaves are pinnate and glabrous, with the
leaflets being from plus/minus 2.5cm long by plus/minus .7cm wide. The
terminal leaflet is longer, being from plus/minus 3.5cm long by plus/minus
1cm wide. The leaflets are oblong-elliptical to lanceolate in shape.
The flowers are borne in umbels of 3-6 flowers either terminally on the
branchlets or in the leaf axils. They are pink in colour and star-shaped
and open well to plus/minus 1.5cm in diameter. Flowers are profuse in the
spring but odd flowers are found during most of the year.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar has only a light covering of brownish hairs on the
newer growth and the leaves are glabrous. B. mollis has a denser covering
of hairs on the new growth which extends for some distance down the stems.
The leaves on B. mollis have stellate hairs on the under side of the
leaves. The leaves of the cultivar when checked against specimens of B.
mollis are generally much larger. Whereas B. fraseri has many trifoliate
leaves, the leaves of the cultivar are truly pinnate. B. 'Telopea Valley
Star' has the long internodes of B. mollis. B. fraseri has much more
compact internodal distances, while B. fraseri has square sectioned stems.
The cultivar is more robust than either of its purported parents.

Boronia megastigma 'Virtuoso'
Boronia megastigma 'Virtuoso' is a colour form of B. megastigma differing from the norm in the very dark to near black coloured outside of the petals, anthers and carpel. The flowering period and form of the cultivar in all other respects is the same as for B. megastigma.
Boronia megastigma 'Jack Maguire's Red'
Note:
Formerly Boronia 'Uncle Jack's Red'
This cultivar is a flower colour form of the species. The flowers are a deep orange red on the outside of the perianth. All other features of the shrub are as for B. megastigma.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar can be distinguished by the flower colour (described in the colour code below).
