Acacia iteaphylla 'Parsons Cascade'
A. 'Parsons Cascade' differs from other known forms of the
species in its low arching, almost pendulous habit. It grows to a height of
about .5m and a width of up to 4m. in its usual form A. iteaphylla is a
medium to tall shrub 3--5m high x 3-6m wide. Other features of this
cultivar are as for A. iteaphylla.

Acacia pravissima 'Golden Carpet'
It is a prostrate plant that will reach a height of about
400mm and attain a spread of about 6m. The phyllodes are triangular being
about 10mm long by about 8mm wide. The lower edge of each phyllode ends in
a sharp point. The yellow flowers are produced in profusion. Each globular
head of flowers is 4mm in diameter.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is different from the known normal forms of its
parent in its completely prostrate habit. Acacia pravissima is normally a
tall shrub or small tree.
Acmena smithii 'BWNFIR'
Large compact shrub up to 6m(h) x 4m(w) with orange red new growth and white flowers.
Acmena smithii 'BWNRED'
Large compact shrub up to 6m(h) x 4m(w) with reddish new growth and white flowers.
Acmena smithii 'Mauve Maisie'
Large shrub with variegated leaves and pink new foliage growth.
Acmena smithii 'Minnie Magic'
Compact shrub which grows to 1.5m(h) x 1m (w) with variegated leaves and pink new growth. White flowers in Spring.
Grevillea 'Copper Crest'
It is a dense mainly prostrate shrub reaching a width of 3-4m but also tends to produce upward arching branches to a height of about 600mm. These branches give an unusual saucer shape to the plant. The leaves are deeply lobed and up to 90mm long by about 40mm wide. Individual lobes which are pointed, are up to 7mm wide. The upper leaf surface is green with prominent veins while the underside is greyer with very prominent veins. A feature of the plant is that new growth is copper-coloured. The flowers are soft pink and produced in the leaf axils. They appear throughout the year with the main flowering period in late spring through to summer.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is different from its stated parents in the copper
to bronze leaf colouring.
Callistemon 'Starlight'
A large rounded shrub to 4m high x 4m across; leaves to 5cm x
1.5 cm, lanceolate, glabrous when mature, ending in short slightly pungent
point; flower spikes to 10cm x 6 cm, white, terminal, usually solitary.
Flowering late spring and summer.
Diagnosis:
Callistemon ‘Starlight’ differs from ‘Reeve's Pink’ in flower
colour. It is much larger than either C. ‘Clearview White’ (sprawling
habit) or C. viminalis ‘Wilderness White’ (weeping form).
Callistemon citrinus 'White Anzac'
This cultivar is a sprawling shrub to 1m tall by 3m across.
The leaves are about 6cm long by 1cm wide and are lanceolate in shape. The
flowers are a pure white, often in inflorescence clusters of three, aging
to a creamy white. The inflorescences are from 10 to 15cm long by 6cm in
diameter. The flowering season is from November to January.
Diagnosis:
C. citrinus varies markedly both in size and flower colour in
natural populations. Callistemon 'White Anzac' can be distinguished by its
low sprawling habit and white flowers. While examining this cultivar,
another similar C. citrinus cultivar was found - Callistemon 'Moonbeam'.
Callistemon 'Moonbeam' was submitted to ACRA by Mr W Cane of
Maffra,Victoria, in April 1964. In later correspondence (February 1978). Mr
Cane remembers "collecting a white flowered C. citrinus near Anzac Cove, it
was a low growing form and came into the trade after it left me as C.
citrinus 'Anzac'". The specimen of Callistemon 'Moonbeam' clearly indicates
in Mr Canes's handwriting that it was collected near a large hospital on
Anzac Cove. Specimens and descriptions of both these cultivars match very
closely and it is highly likely that they are the same clonal material.
Even if they are not, the form and flower colour warrant being regarded as
the same cultivar. Therefore, any material being grown under the names C
'Anzac', C. citrinus 'Anzac', C 'Moonbeam' or C. citrinus 'Moonbeam' should
now be known as Callistemon 'White Anzac'. It would be normal practice to
use the original name of Callistemon 'Moonbeam' but this name does not
appear to be widely accepted or used to any degree. Callistemon 'White
Anzac' has been widely marketed under that name, therefore Article 46 of
the Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants has been instigated. This
Article allows the retention of the name in common usage if the use of a
previous name would lead to confusion.
