Lomandra confertifolia 'LCS1'
A small clumping grass-like perennial with arching leaves. Fragrant yellow flowers on spikes. Comparitors: L. 'Mist', L. 'Merlon Ruby', L. Seascape', L. 'Silver Grace'. Diagnosis: Lomandra confertifolia 'LCS1' is a short to medium dense grasslike perennial with more and longer inflorescences than other most similar varieties.
Lomandra confertifolia 'Lime Tuff'

Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida 'PomPom'
A male dwarf mound-forming mutation of the subspecies, 40–60
cm high, 70–100 cm across, with dense semi-erect to arching foliage,
inflorescences generally hidden amongst the foliage.
Flowers:
Autumn to summer, cream to yellow small flowers, inflorescences
quarter to half length of leaves.
Foliage colour:
Mid green, thin, semi-erect to arching, strappy leaves,
forming a dense mound.
Comparators:
Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida Kuranga variety,
Lomandra confertifolia subsp. pallida 'Lime Tuff', Lomandra confertifolia
subsp. pallida 'Little Lime'. Based on general plant appearance,
particularly leaf morphology, habit, relatedness and parentage these are
the closest varieties of common knowledge known to the applicant.
Reasons for distinctiveness:
Lomandra 'PomPom' has semi-erect to arching
foliage and flowers readily whereas L. 'Little Lime' has erect foliage and
is thought to be sterile. L. 'PomPom' has a low mound-forming habit to 60
cm high, whereas L. 'Lime Tuff' and L. Kuranga variety have a rounded to
vase-shaped habit to 120 cm high.
Lomandra filiformis 'LMF500'
Compact clumping plant fine textured, blue-green foliage grows to 30 cm high x 30 cm wide. Small yellow flowers appear from September to November.
Pultenaea pedunculata 'Pyalong Gold'
This cultivar is a colour form of Pultenaea pedunculata Hook. It is a dense prostrate shrub that grows to 2m wide, and is very floriferous. The flowers are ca.1cm across and appear in spring. All other details for the cultivar are as for P. pedunculata.
Diagnosis:
Pultenaea 'Pyalong Gold' is readily distinguished from the usual P. pedunculata by its flower colour which is pure yellow with a small patch of red around the base of the keel and standard of the flowers.
Other notes:
Although forms close to this one are known from previous wild collections, it is uncommon and its bright yellow flowers make it more conspicuous than the more common forms of P. pedunculata. The cultivar was first selected and introduced to cultivation in October 1977.

Scaevola 'Angela Ratcliffe'
This cultivar has a prostrate habit, spreading to 1m across.
The numerous branches are densely intertwined with individual branches
having a zigzag pattern. The leaves are broad and slightly succulent in
appearance, 2.5-3cm long by up to 1cm wide at the widest point. The leaf
apex is obtuse. Both stems and leaves are covered in short stiff hairs. The
flowers are a purplish colour, borne at the ends of short branchlets, very
much resembling those of S. ramosissima.
Diagnosis:
Scaevola 'Angela Ratcliffe' differs from S. ramosissima in the
following ways. The leaves are obvate and not linear to lanceolate as in
S. ramosissima and are of a much thicker (almost succulent) texture. The
leaf apex is obtuse and not acute. Bracteoles are narrow obvate rather than
linear. Peduncles are shorter than the leaves. Peduncles of S. ramosissima
are as long as or longer than the leaves.
Spyridium parvifolium 'Nimbus'
It is a dense prostrate shrub growing to a height of about
10mm with a spread of about 2m. The small round leaves are up to 8mm long
by 6-8mm wide. The leaf tip is often indented. The green upper leaf surface
has distinct veining while the underside is silvery and covered with long
silky hairs. New foliage is distinctly grey. The small and insignificant
flowers are borne in clusters at the end of the branchlets.
Diagnosis:
This cultivar is different from other forms of Spyridium
parvifolium in its prostrate habit.
