Description
Waratah (Telopea) is an Australian-endemic genus of five species of large shrubs native to the southeastern parts of Australia.  The most well known species in this genus is Telopea speciosissima, which has bright red flowers and is the NSW state emblem.  The waratah is a member of the plant family Proteaceae, a family of flowering plants distributed in the Southern Hemisphere.  Waratahs are a pyrogenic flowering species, meaning that they rely on post-fire flowering followed by production and dispersal of non-dormant seeds to take advantage of favourable growing conditions in the altered environment following a fire.
