Niedenzu(1898) maintained Euryonlyrtus as a sectionof Baeckea(in which he alsoincluded Asturtea andScholtzid as sections) but hansferredthe relatedspecies Bentham had placedin section Rinzia to Hypocalymmc. He thus recognizedthat Rinzia andHypocalynma arerelated but failed to recognizethat the speciesBentham placed in his sectionEr.rry omytus arc morc closelyrelated to these generathan to theremai:nder of Baecka ascircumscribedby Bentham. Bean ( 1995,1997) recognized th^t Euryomyrtus should be consideredgenerically distinct but did not formally reinstate it ol lectotypifyit. In theirinformal classification of theMyrtaceae, Briggs & Johnson(1979) placed Baeckea inthe Baeckeasuballiance of their Chamelauciumalliance, with Euryomyrtusas a sectionrequiring investigationto see if it deservedgeneric rank. They subsequently(Johnson & Briggs 1985) abandonedsuballiances in the Chamelauciumalliance and presenteda sketch phyllogram of relationshipswithin this difficult group. Materials and methods This studywas basedon the grossmorphology of herbariummaterial supplemented by some observationsin thefield. Themeasurements given for theparts of flowerswere taken from material thathad been boiled in waterwith a smallamount of detergentin it. Themeasurements of leaves were takenfrom dry material.A selectionofthe materialexamined has been cited, based on location(to coverthe range of thespecies), quality of labelinformation and variation. For poorly collected species all the material seenhas beencited. Terminol.ogy.Processes (Trudgen 1986) are the same structures referred to by Can (1980)as floral trichomes.They also occurin atleastsomeRfuzia species and some other members ofthenatural group to which Euryomyrtrs belongs. Theinflorescence terms anthopodium, monad, uniflorescence, conflorescgnce, superconllorescence, brachyblast,auxotelic and anauxotelicare usedas definedby Briggs & Johnson(1979). Aril, hypanthiumand flower size are used as defined in Trudgen(1986). Testa surface terminology follows Murley(1951) as given in Steam(1973). Separation of Euryom!rtus from relxted genera Within thesupra-generic group having reniform seeds, the seven species referred here to Euryomyrtus form a coherentsubgroup that is sufficiently distinct to deservegeneric rank. Euryomyrtuscanbe distinguished from the other membersof the reniform-seededgroup by having the following combinationof characters: 1. Filamentsterete (sometimes slightly flattened near the base) and the stamens opposite the petals with longer filamentsthan thoseopposite the sepalsand betweenthe sepalsand petals. 2. Anthersdorsifixed and versatile.

Nuytsia 20: 309–318 (2010). Verticordia mitchelliana subsp. implexior A.S.George & M.D.Barrett and Verticordia setacea A.S.George are described and discussed. Verticordia setacea belongs with V. gracilis A.S.George in section Platandra, previously a monotypic section. Introduction The genus Verticordia DC. (Myrtaceae: tribe Chamelaucieae) is a charismatic group of shrubs found mainly in south-western Australia, with several species in adjacent arid regions and three in tropical Australia (George 1991; George & Pieroni 2002). Verticordia is currently defined solely on the possession of divided calyx lobes, but the limits between Verticordia and the related genera Homoranthus A.Cunn. ex Schauer, Chamelaucium Desf. and Darwinia Rudge are difficult to define conclusively, and other characteristics such as anther morphology suggest conflicting relationships (Bentham 1867; Craven & Jones 1991; George 1991). A recent analysis using a single chloroplast gene, with limited sampling of Verticordia taxa (Ma et al. 2002), suggests that Verticordia may be polyphyletic.

    Wildflowers to grow in your garden Here is the key to the list Trees Ground covers Shrubs Eucalypts Banksias Myrtle family Banksias Others Baeckea Other Beaufortia Calothamnus Chamelaucium Hypocalymna Kunzea Melaleuca and Callistemon Scholtzia Thryptomene Verticordia Large trees. Think very carefully before you plant them! Large trees, such as lemon scented gums or spotted gums may look great in parks - at least local councils seem to think so (we would rather see local plants). But you may regret planting them in a modern small garden. That doesn't mean there is no room for trees. There are hundreds of attractive small trees that grow very well in native gardens. Here are just a few. Small trees Eucalypts with showy flowers. Eucalytpus caesia Comes in two sub species with the one known as "silver princess" being readily available in Perth. Lovely multi- stemmed weeping tree with pendulous pink flowers and silver-bell fruits. E. torquata Small upright tree with attractive pink flowers. Very drought resistant. E. ficifolia Often called the WA Flowering gum. Ranges in size from small to quite large and in flower colour from deep red to = Corymbia ficifolia orange to pale pink. In WA subject to a serious disease - called canker. Many trees succumb when about 10 or so years old, either dying or becoming very unhealthy. E. preissiana Bell fruited mallee. Small tree (or shrub) with bright yellow flowers. E. erythrocorys Illyarrie, red cap gum or helmet nut gum. Large golden flowers in February preceded by a bright red bud cap. Tree tends to be bit floppy and to need pruning.

Two subspecies are recognized: B. ramosissima subsp. ramosissima is widely distributed in coastal and inland localities from northern New South Wales through Victoria to South Australia and Tasmania;B. ramosissima subsp. prostrata (Hook, f.) G. W. Carr, comb, et stat. nov., occurs in southern coastal New South Wales, southern Victoria and northern and western Tasmania. Both taxa are described and illustrated, also a key to their identification is provided. Distribution of the taxa is mapped. Geographical variation, ecology and biology are discussed. INTRODUCTION Baeckea ramosissima (as currently recognized by Australian botanists) is a widespread and very distinct species occurring in south eastern Australia. The eastern Australian species most closely allied to it are B. crassifolia Lindl. and B. ericaea F. Muell. My observations on its Victorian populations have supported the view of Willis (1973) that it is “A polymorphic assemblage, some populations of which may merit taxonomic distinction.” The descriptions by Black (1952), Curtis (1956) and Beadle et al.

    FOLIA HORTICULTURAE Folia Hort. 28/2 (2016): 201-207 Published by the Polish Society DOI: 10.1515/fhort-2016-0024 for Horticultural Science since 1989 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open access http://www.foliahort.ogr.ur.krakow.pl The vase life of waxflower Chamelaucium( Desf.) is affected by the weight ratio of flowers to stem Cao D. Dung1*, Kevin Seaton2, Zora Singh3 1 Potato, Vegetable and Flower Research Center Thai phien village, Ward 12, Da Lat, Lam Dong, Vietnam 2 Department of Agriculture and Food Western Australia 3 Baron-Hay Court, South Perth, WA 6151, Australia 3 Department of Environment and Agriculture Curtin University Kent St., Bentley, Perth, WA 6102, Australia ABSTRACT The effect of flower weight on changes in the vase life of flowers and leaves of waxflowers was studied by evaluating the arranged flower weight of cultivars derived from theChamelaucium uncinatum, Chamelaucium megalopetalum and Verticordia species. Competition for water and carbohydrates between flowers and leaves influenced vase life. The removal of flowers had at least four times the effect on leaf vase life as the removal of leaves on flower vase life. Supplying exogenous sucrose to satisfy the demand for carbohydrates negated this effect, indicating that flowers depend on carbohydrates being supplied from leaves to maintain vase life. Cultivars with a greater proportion of flowers (on a weight basis) improved the vase life of flowers at the expense of the leaves. Cultivars with large flowers or many small flowers or a greater weight ratio of flowers to stem appeared to draw more carbohydrates and water from the leaves, giving them a longer vase life and decreasing the vase life of the leaves.
