Alloxylon Alloxylon is a genus of four species in the family Proteaceae of mainly small to medium-sized trees. They are native to the eastern coast of Australia, with one species, "A. brachycarpum" found in New Guinea and the Aru Islands. The genus is a relatively new creation, being split off from "Oreocallis". The name is derived from Ancient Greek "allo-" "other" or "strange" and "xylon" or "wood" due to their unusual cell architecture compared with the related genera "Telopea" and "Oreocallis". In Australia, they are known as tree waratahs due to similarities in the inflorescences between them and the closely related "Telopea".

Note that the name bulrush is also applied to species in the unrelated genus "Typha" as well as to other sedges. The genus "Schoenoplectus" was formerly considered part of "Scirpus", but recent phylogenetic data shows that they are not closely related.

List of largest giant sequoias The giant sequoia ("Sequoiadendron giganteum") is the world's most massive tree, and arguably the largest living organism on Earth. It is neither the tallest extant species of tree (that distinction belongs to the coast redwood), nor is it the widest (that distinction belongs to the baobab tree or Montezuma Cypresses), nor is it the longest-lived (that distinction belongs to the Great Basin bristlecone pine). However, with a height of 286 ft or more, a circumference of 113 ft or more, an estimated bole volume of up to 52500 ft3 , and an estimated life span of 1800–2700 years, the giant sequoia is among the tallest, widest and longest-lived of all organisms on Earth.

Most of the photosynthesis occurs in the green stem branches. The shrub blooms abundantly in white to greenish-white flowers. The fruits are shiny black berries each a few millimeters long; they are attractive to birds.
