This is super, showing the stages of cone development. After a storm a few years ago, I lugged home a fair sized branch that had snapped off a large road-side Banksia. I let it dry out in my garage, then brought it inside standing in a tall vase - makes for a wonderful architectural, artistic botanical specimen. It is also covered in cones at various stages and I love to see them every day. (I think it is a B. integrifolia). Posted 3 years ago
