Other names: Telopea
Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)
Waratah, also known as Telopea, is an important part of the Australian flora and one of the most beautiful flowers in the world. It is native to the Australian rainforests where it enriches its surroundings with beautiful red, pink or white flowers. Each Waratah flower can reach up to 10 to 12 cm in width and is made up of many smaller florets. It is a particularly hardy plant that can survive in the harshest conditions, including the drying effects of Australia and frequent temperature fluctuations.
Although Waratah flowers are often admired for their beauty, they also have many practical uses. They are highly prized in the florist trade for their longevity as cut flowers, ensuring them a place in many bouquets and decorations. Because of their textured appearance and bold colors, these flowers are often used in decorative arrangements, including wedding bouquets. In Australia, it is also used in the production of perfumes and essential oils. The oil in question is obtained by distilling the flowers and leaves of the plant, which produces a unique fragrance. Waratah flowers are also known for their medicinal properties and are traditionally used in Australian Aboriginal medicine to treat various ailments. Waratah is therefore not limited to its aesthetic function, but also brings a number of practical benefits that encourage its wider use.
