These are just some shots of various Banksia species that we have planted in the Big Bush Garden to highlight the wonderful textures and colours of the flowers/cones and leaves. Most of the Banksias flower in autumn and winter, along with most of the Grevilleas, which create wonderful warm tones of oranges, reds and creams.
A swamp banksia, Banksia robur
Another swamp banksia with younger cones
hmmm not sure what this one is, but you can see the seed capsules developing on the outside of the cone
another swamp banksia flower just starting to develop (we do have about half a dozen different Banksia species, honest)
I think this is a Banksia ericifolia (I think)...love the texture of this....
