• Kangaroo paw — A genus of herbaceous perennial plants, native to the arid regions of Southwestern Australia, belonging to the Haemodoraceae family. Commonly known as 'Kangaroo paw' due to the tubular, curved, and velvety hairy shape of its inflorescences, this structural plant develops long flowering stalks emerging from a rosette of sword-like leaves, being highly valued worldwide in xeriscaping and as a cut flower.
• Tall kangaroo paw — The most robust and adaptable species of the Anigozanthos genus, native to the damp and forested regions of Southwestern Australia. This structural perennial plant is distinguished by imposing flower stalks that can reach two meters in height, evergreen sword-like leaves, and velvety yellow-green inflorescences, being heavily used in hybridization due to its high resistance to fungal diseases and temperature fluctuations.
• Red and green kangaroo paw — An iconic species of the Anigozanthos genus, famous as the floral emblem of Western Australia, remarkable for the spectacular chromatic contrast of its inflorescences. The structural plant develops simple or poorly branched flowering stalks, covered with fiery red hairs at the upper part, from which intense emerald-green tubular flowers emerge, requiring strict drainage conditions and a warm climate to survive.
• Golden kangaroo paw — A rhizomatous perennial species of the Anigozanthos genus, remarkable for its bright golden-yellow inflorescences covered with dense yellow and red hairs. This structural plant grows on dry, sandy soils of Southwestern Australia, forming branched flower stalks that provide a stunning visual display during summer, being highly valued in dried floral arrangements due to its ability to retain intense color after cutting.
• Red kangaroo paw — A herbaceous perennial species of the Anigozanthos genus, remarkable for the deep red, purple, or maroon color of its tubular flowers. This structural plant develops vigorous, branched flowering stalks completely covered in fine red hairs, creating a deep velvety appearance, and is widely cultivated in Mediterranean climate regions or warm greenhouses due to its high ornamental value.
