What to check before you buy

Growers on HortOS list the plant under the misspelt name Russelia equisitiformis, under the bare species name and as named colour forms; Ruby Falls is red and Lemon Falls yellow. The Australian Plant Census records it as doubtfully naturalised in Queensland and on Norfolk Island, and South Australia's Plant Selector warns against planting it near bushland or conservation areas because it has naturalised in the United States. Stock that crosses a state border moves under the state and territory biosecurity rules on moving plants and soil.
