About this Camellia cultivar
This illustration from an 1898 catalog depicts Brachycome iberidifolia, commonly known as Swan River Daisy, specifically a 'Camellia Flowered' type. Despite the descriptive term, this plant is not a Camellia. The flowers, shown in black and white, exhibit a dense, formal double bloom form with numerous tightly packed petals, characteristic of the 'Camellia Flowered' designation. The plant has a compact, mounding growth habit with finely divided, fern-like foliage.
