waratahs's Usage Examples:

Percy Parry of Floralands in Kariong developed the idea of Preservation by Cultivation and investigated the commercial cultivation of waratahs and other native plants.

Initially, waratahs were picked from the bushland for market, but by the early 20th century, a few plantsmen grew concerned at the development of urban areas at the expense of bush, particularly areas noted for wildflowers.

His most famous surviving work is a triptych stained glass window of Oceania flanked by numerous waratahs overlooking the Centennial Hall in Sydney Town Hall.

The area had many wild flowers, including waratahs, Christmas bush, boronias, native roses, and a variety of orchids which thrived there.

Aboriginal legends of white waratahs existed, and several had been encountered, but none had been previously preserved in horticulture.

Despite their natural occurrence in woodland, waratahs flower best in full sun, although they tolerate the dappled shade of eucalypts.

Following on from the Parrys were Howard Gay and Arch Dennis, who pioneered growing waratahs at Monbulk in the Dandenong Ranges in the 1940s, Sid Cadwell and Frank Stone, who did likewise in Dural and the Blue Mountains respectively.

Today, New South Wales waratahs are grown commercially in Australia north of Sydney and in the Dandenong Ranges near Melbourne.

In 1925, artist Margaret Preston produced a hand-coloured woodcut depicting waratahs.

The vase life of a cut waratah is 10 to 14 days, and cut flower waratahs can be revived somewhat by water.

paintings included arrangements of flowers consisting of daffodils, hippeastrums and waratahs.
