Leaves: bright green, flowers: buds - red, petals – red, orange and yellow, sessile, 12mm long. Flowers in spring/summer but may flower at other times of the year after rain
Agonis flexuosa 'Denmark Delight'
Note:
Specimen received as Agonis Nana Superior Form
This cultivar is a very dense dwarf form growing to ca. 1.7m tall by up to 2m wide. The branchlets are pendulous at a very early age, with the leaves being of similar size to the common form of A. flexuosa. The stems are reddish and the new growth is pink to red. The cultivar has
not been seen to flower.
Diagnosis:
There are a number of cultivars that have arisen from A. flexuosa. A. flexuosa 'Fairy Foliage' is very distinct because of its very reduced leaf blade and A. flexuosa 'Variegata' by its variegated foliage. A. flexuosa 'Nana' is probably the closest to A. flexuosa 'Denmark Delight'
but the two can easily be distinguished as A. flexuosa 'Nana' grows up to 3m tall and has much wider leaves.
Eremophila 'BERYLS BLUE'
E. ‘Beryl’s Blue’ is a compact rounded shrub approximately 1.5 metres in diameter. It has short leaves and pale blue flowers which occur from September to November.
Diagnosis:
E. ‘Beryl’s Blue’ may well be a hybrid between E. nivea and E. caerulea. E. ‘Beryl’s Blue’ is most like E. nivea, however its leaves are shorter, stiffer and curl over, flowers are much paler blue and it has a
more compact habit than E. nivea.
