Banksia aculeata

Hi,

I revised and expanded Banksia aculeata, in the course of which I re-sourced the flower morphology information that you added, to George (1999), hence losing your reference to Collins (2008). I still don't have a copy of Collins, so I can't work your reference back in. Perhaps you'd like to check over the cultivation section, update it if necessary, and source that to Collins instead of / as well as George (1988), which is getting a bit long in the tooth.

Ta, it seems as though you've been busy:) I've updated the cultivation section - Collins does have a little more info. Interestingly, like many species, the flower colours listed do seem to be somewhat variable - the photo uploaded has pink tips and yellow bases, contrary to the standard description. I also do have a photo with yellow tips and pink bases. I might upload it.
