The Shrub for Today's Flowers: Murraya paniculata

This Jasmine-like foliage with orange blossom-like white flowers grows in our vicinity. It has a sweet perfume and blooms from orange to red berries in spring. It is popular for hedging or screen planting and grows to 3 metres high by 3 metres wide.







Cheers!

Proteaceae is a family of flowering plants. Mainly restricted to the Southern Hemisphere, it is a fairly large family, with around 80 genera but fewer than 2000 species. Together with the Platanaceae and Nelumbonaceae they make up the order Proteales. Well known genera include Protea, Banksia, Embothrium, Grevillea, Hakea, Dryandra and Macadamia. Species such as the New South Wales Waratah (Telopea speciosissima), King Protea (Protea cynaroides), and various species of Banksia, Grevillea, and Leucodendron are popular cut flowers, while the nuts of Macadamia integrifolia are widely commercially grown and consumed.

Cheers!
