    Wonderful plants being bird beacons but also providing for sugar gliders, koalas, possums and butterflies. All species here are native which surprises some as I think they associate it with Christmas and therefore perhaps the northern hemisphere.

The Box Mistletoe

''Amyema miquelii'', also known as box mistletoe, is a species of flowering plant, an epiphytic hemiparasitic plant of the family Loranthaceae, found attached to several species of Australian eucalypt and occasionally on some species of Acacia. It is the most widespread of the Australian Mistletoes, occurring mainly to the west of the Great Dividing Range.
