The Waratah

"Telopea speciosissima", commonly known as the New South Wales waratah or simply waratah, is a large shrub in the plant family Proteaceae. It is endemic to New South Wales in Australia and is the floral emblem of that state. No subspecies are recognised, but the closely related "Telopea aspera" was only recently classified as a separate species.
