  1. Xanthorrhoea australis

    Speciesbox taxon Xanthorrhoea australis image Xanthorrhoea australis.jpg image caption Xanthorrhoea australis flowers after a fire in The Grampians , Victoria Australia Victoria , Australia authority Robert Brown botanist R. Br. Xanthorrhoea australis , the Grass tree or Black Boy is a unique Australian plant. It is the most commonly seen species of the genus Xanthorrhoea . Its fire blackened trunk can grow up to several metres tall and is often branched. In certain Aboriginal languages, it is called Bukkup or Kawee . In Xanthorrhoeas, the main way to identify them is by looking at the cross section of the leaves. In the case of the X. australis , the cross section is a rough diamond shape, and the colour of the leaves is a bluish green. X. australis is not often seen in bloom because this species requires fire to stimulate its reproductive cycle. However, if it does flower, a flowering spike grows out of the top of the plant. Flowers appear on the spike, usually covering frac 1 2 Frac 5 6 of the stem. The flowers of this particular species have 6 petals. The crown of leaves of X. australis will be almost spherical in shape, the point of each leaf perfectly marking the shape of the imagined sphere. X. australis has leaves which are softer and generally less rigid than other Xanthorrhoeas. Old leaves hang down forming a distinctive skirt like feature that partly covers the fire blackened trunk. X. australis flowers from July to December, but younger plants may flower in June. This species can also be found in South Australia , New South Wales and Tasmania .
