Trees up to 16 m high. By far the most widespread and abundant willow in Australia and was originally planted for stream stabilisation. It spreads almost exclusively by plant parts.
HOW IT SPREADS
This stately tree up to 30 m high is often seen along rivers and streams. Fast growing, it is widely recognised as an important tree for stabilising riverbanks and for soil erosion prevention. This species is useful for windbreaks, is frost tolerant and is ideal for windy sites and coastal areas.
This semi-deciduous fast-growing Australian native tree grows to 30 m and is the largest of all Grevillea species. Golden nectarladen flowers to 15 cm long are produced in abundance during spring. This species prefers a rich well-drained soil and full-sun for maximum flower development. The fern-like leaves are easily recognised and the bark is grey and deeply fissured. Bird attracting.
Native to the Snowy Mountains and Victoria, this evergreen species reaches 20 m. It is very long-lived, can withstand snow and ice, and prospers in well-drained soils at higher altitudes. Profuse nectar-rich white blossoms from spring to summer.
