Grevillea (Proteaceae) 3:605 |
|
|
Grevillea
is characterised by having relatively soft follicles with only
two seeds, which are surrounded by a narrow wing. In spite of being
one of Australia's largest genera (with about 370 species), Grevillea
is only represented in Tasmania by G. australis and some
garden escaped, cultivated hybrids. This species
is quite widespread and is very variable (there are several
subspecies described). It has narrow, entire leaves with recurved or
revolute margins, and with a hairy undersurface. However the size
and width of the leaves varies greatly. The flowers are white or
cream and are relatively small.
