Medium shrub with pale pink flowers. Late flowering selection. Selection criteria: vigour, floriferousness, stem length, flower colour and date of flowering.

A rounded shrub approximately 2m high x 1.5m wide. with masses of large white waxy flowers in Spring.

Medium shrub with pink mauve flowers. Selection criteria: vigour, floriferousness, stem length, flower colour and date of flowering.

Shrub 1.5m in diameter with white wax flowers. It is a late flowering white petalled Waxflower. It is distinct from known varieties in having the following combination of characters: A November flowering season; thick stems; short leaves; dense, axillary flowering clusters; narrow floral tubes; short, narrow leaves; long styles; white petals. Pearl Buttons’, C. ‘White Spring’ Diagnosis: Pearl Buttons’ is of medium height. The plants have a higher density of foliage and flowers, thicker stems, shorter arching linear leaves and longer pedicel lengths than ‘White Spring’. The floral tubes of ‘Pearl Buttons’ are red-orange in older flowers whereas those of ‘White Spring’ are yellow-green. The style plus stigma length is greater in ‘Pearl Buttons’ than in ‘White Spring’. ‘Pearl Buttons’ has smaller flowers than ‘White Spring’.

A rounded shrub approximately 2m high x 1.5m wide. with masses of dark pink crimson waxy flowers in Spring.

A rounded shrub 2m high x 1.5m wide with unique frilly flower pink petals which darken with age. Good cut flowers.

Leaves are a bright shiny green on upper surface, but covered with dense silky hairs on underside. Each leaf is up to about 4cm long and about 4-6mm wide and pungent. The edges are slightly rolled under. Flowers are yellow with contrasting bright pink style, are produced in loose heads on the ends of short branches. Short leaf-like bracts are usually seen within each flower head. Individual flowers, yellow about 1.2cm long while the bright pink styles are about 2.2cm long. Flowers are said to be sterile. Note: This cultivar can be expected to grow to a height of about 1.5m by about 2m wide. Diagnosis: The flower colours of yellow and bright pink distinguish this cultivar from its assumed parents.

A shrub with laxly spreading to divaricate branches; leaves 15-25mm long,2-4mm broad, oblong to narrow elliptical, + acute with scarcely pungent points, glabrous glossy and trinerved above, the margins recurved; infloresence a short loose raceme, the rachis 7-8mm long, pubescent; flowers on slender pubescent pedicals 5-7mm long; perianth tube 8-10mm long + 1mm diameter near the recurved limb, dilating to + 3mm diameter below the middle, pubescent, the limb 2.25mm diameter, more densely pubescent; ovary villous as is the 2mm long stipe; style + 20mm long villous in the lower part with scattered hairs above, disc surrounding stigma obicular 2mm diameter, glabrous. Diagnosis: Grevillea 'Poorinda Belinda' differs from G. juniperina chiefly in its scarcely pungent + flat leaves; perianth tube more broadley dilated below the middle; ovary and stipe villous, the stipe much less than 4mm long, and inits hairy style. Comparators: Grevillea juniperina R.Br. 13M (Ca 21Km) from Braidwood-Nerriga, New South Wales, D.W. Shoobridge, 28-10-1962 CBG 013054. Notes: Another attractive addition to the "Poorinda" range of cultivars and one that is similiar at least in leaf shape to G. 'Poorinda Signet'. It can be distinguished from that cultivar by the innocuous points of its leaves; its shorter inflorescence and the hairy covering of its branches which is not distinctively whitish grey. Differences to be seen are densely hairy ovary of G. 'Poorinda Belinda', its much longer hairy style and its overall flower colour which is a pale orange shade rather than brick red.

This cultivar is a large spreading shrub growing to a height of about 3 metres by 3-4 metres wide. The leaves are very deeply lobed, occasionally with secondary lobes. The individual lobes are pungent, and 15mm by 4-5mm wide. The upper leaf surface is smooth and shiny whilst the underside is covered with dense silvery hairs. The leaf edges are rolled under. The new foliage has purple to bronze tonings. The flowers are of the toothbrush type and are borne terminally in the upper leaf axils. The perianth is about 10mm long and is covered with dense hairs. These hairs mask its deep purple colour. The reddish purple style is about 20mm long. Diagnosis: This cultivar differs from G. acanthifolia in that each lobe is usually entire compared with the usually sub-divided lobes of G. acanthifolia. The leaves are different from G. longifolia in that they are much more deeply lobed. Note: Upon further continuing close examination of specimens growing at the Australian National Botanic Gardens it has been found that not all specimens have dense silvery hairs on the underside of the leaves. It appears that this characteristic can vary slightly between specimens in different situations. For this reason this characteristic should not have too great an emphasis placed upon it when determining this cultivar.
