Banksia coccinea

Banksia species have flowers arranged spirally around the flower axis. Some have a vertical alignment superimposed on it. In Banksia coccinea, this vertical alignment is strongly accentuated by large gaps between the columns and neighbouring columns lean in opposite directions, resulting in bright red vertical columns consisting of flower styles, alternating with vertical gaps through which the light grey perianths can be seen.

Banksia coccinea belongs to the following groups:
