Banksia integrifolia
Coast Banksia, Coastal Banksia
Description
A highly variable species. Most often seen as an upright tree but in exposed areas can grow into a small, gnarled tree, or, on very
exposed areas (such as on coastal headlands) can be reduced to a small shrub. Usually has a single stout trunk, often twisted and
gnarled, and rough grey bark. Leaves are dark green with a white underside. The roughly cylindrical flower spikes are 5cms wide x
10-12cms tall and pale yellow to yellow in colour, appearing from January to June. Bird and mammal attracting. Woody cones
remain after the flowers are finished. Suits both coastal and inland positions as street trees, garden/landscape specimens, or for
bush regeneration and dune stabilisation. Frost and wind tolerant. Adaptable to well drained/poorly drained soils and drought
tolerant once established. Lightly prune to shape.
