Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida 'PomPom'
A male dwarf mound-forming mutation of the subspecies, 40–60
cm high, 70–100 cm across, with dense semi-erect to arching foliage,
inflorescences generally hidden amongst the foliage.
Flowers:
Autumn to summer, cream to yellow small flowers, inflorescences
quarter to half length of leaves.
Foliage colour:
Mid green, thin, semi-erect to arching, strappy leaves,
forming a dense mound.
Comparators:
Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida Kuranga variety,
Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida 'Lime Tuff', Lomandra confertifolia
subsp. pallida 'Little Lime'. Based on general plant appearance,
particularly leaf morphology, habit, relatedness and parentage these are
the closest varieties of common knowledge known to the applicant.
Reasons for distinctiveness:
Lomandra 'PomPom' has semi-erect to arching
foliage and flowers readily whereas L. 'Little Lime' has erect foliage and
is thought to be sterile. L. 'PomPom' has a low mound-forming habit to 60
cm high, whereas L. 'Lime Tuff' and L. Kuranga variety have a rounded to
vase-shaped habit to 120 cm high.
Lomandra filiformis 'LMF500'
Compact clumping plant fine textured, blue-green foliage grows to 30 cm high x 30 cm wide. Small yellow flowers appear from September to November.
Lechenaultia biloba 'White Flash'
A natural colour variant of Lechenaultia biloba which differs
from other forms in that it has a clear and sharp break between the white
central portion of the flower and the deep blue outer area of the petals.
The plant in the wild is an open wiry specimen but with judicious pruning
could be shaped into an attractive garden bush doing best in a light gravel
or sandy soil. Cultivar received by the Authority on 10 December 1974 from
the ANBG.

Anigozanthos 'Dwarf Delight'
This cultivar is a compact plant with much branched flower
stems to .8m tall. The flowering stems are covered with plumose hairs.
These hairs are sparsely scattered at the base of the stem and around the
leaf-like bracts on the stem. The hairs are reddish in colour. The perianth
segments of the flower are green-yellow but appear apricot when seen
through the reddish hairs. These two colours contrast well. The leaves are
up to 25cm long by 1cm wide.
Diagnosis:
Anigozanthos 'Dwarf delight', which grows to 0.8m tall, is
midway in height between the ca. 0.3m of A. onycis and ca. 2m of A.
flavidus. The flowering stems of the cultivar are sparsely covered with
plumose hairs for much of their length, becoming dense towards the
individual flowers. The flowering stems of the cultivar are sparsely
covered with plumose hairs for much of their length, becoming dense towards
the individual flowers. A. onycis, is covered in dense, plumose hairs for
the full length of the flower spike while A. flavidus has them only on the
perianth segments of the flower and for a short distance below on the stem.
The majority of the stem in this species is glabrous. The leaf-like bracts
on the stem are the size of A. onycis. The flowers are intermediate in size
between those of the two parents.
