• Crested wattle — A distinct shrub or small tree in the legume family, native to Western Australia, commonly known as the 'crested wattle' or 'plume albizia'; it is characterized by rapid growth, dark green pinnate leaves, and dense, cylindrical, greenish-yellow or cream inflorescences resembling small brushes.
• 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.
• Arthropodium — A genus of perennial herbaceous plants in the family Asparagaceae (subfamily Lomandroideae), native primarily to the Southern Hemisphere, particularly Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia, and Madagascar. These plants are structurally characterized by tuberous roots or short rhizomes, linear leaves, and delicate flowers arranged in panicle inflorescences, featuring stamen filaments covered with fine hairs, from which its etymological name derives.
