Propagation Of Wild Flowers

BLACK THORN

Bursaria spinosa

This species occurs commonly in Eastern Australia and Tasmania. In open country it becomes very susceptible to Indian Wax scale, which it transfers to more delicate plants. It is a variable, spreading shrub with masses of white flowers in November or December and January. The fruit is 4iind purse-like.

GUM VINE

Aphanopetalum resinosum

Christmas Bush (Ceratopetalum gurnmiferum) and Aphanopetalum are very close relations. In Aphanopetalum, however, the small flowers are succeeded by less conspicuously enlarged sepals. The rich coastal areas of Queensland and New South Wales are commonly inhabited by this species and it occurs rarely in eastern Victoria. It flowers in spring and early summer. It is a straggling shrub with simple opposite leaves and inconspicuous white flowers.

MOCK ORANGE

Pittosporum undulattem

The 'Pittosporums are handsome shrubs or small trees much cultivated on account of their heavily scented flowers, which are white, yellow, or purple, and their attractive fruits. The white- flowering species are moth-pollinated, and are very heavily scented at night. When the fruit or pod splits open it reveals a yellow or orange lining embedded in which are shining black or red seeds.

The citrus-like leaves and orange-colored fruits of this species have earned it its popular name. It is common to all the eastern States of Australia, and flowers from August to September.

TRAVELLERS' JOY

Clematis aristata

Clematis is a charming climbing plant with large white flowers up to 1 inch across, borne in loose clusters. The soft, indented leaves are most attractive. It grows rapidly and covers large areas, scrambling on whatever support is available. When the flowers wither, the long bearded "seeds", even more beautiful, take their place, and are gradually carried on the wind with the aid of the long feathery style. It flowers from September to October, and is found on the coast district and tablelands of all the States with the exception of South Australia.
