A visually striking element of this exceptional model is its rendering of the adaptable Coast Banksia tree. Notably variable in shape, the Coast Banksia can range from a compact shrub-like form all the way up to the size of a substantial medium-high tree. Found naturally growing alone or in mixed communities alongside Melaleuca quinquenervia along the southeastern coastline of Southern Australia, the Coast Banksia possesses several unique characteristics that set it apart from its fellow Banksias. For instance, this magnificent model showcases the ability of the Coast Banksia to thrive without the need for devastating bushfires to trigger seed release - a notable distinction among the other species within this genus. Although the Coast Banksia still benefits significantly from moderate fires, which help to create favorable surface soil conditions that enable its optimal growth and flourishing health, its seeds do not rely on catastrophic fires for propagation. Standing tall at a remarkable height of up to 15 meters, the Coast Banksia boasts an impressive stature. Its origins are rooted firmly in Southeastern Australia, where it inhabits diverse environments with distinct landscapes - thriving on rugged coastal cliffs and majestic headlands, as well as river estuaries teeming with life; the stabilized sand beneath its roots provides a secure foundation for this remarkable tree to grow strong.
