Yellow and white flower colour variant, in late bud in the Beeliar Regional Park. Banksia menziesii grows either as a gnarled tree to 10 m (33 ft), or a lower spreading 1–3 metres (3.3–9.8 ft) shrub, generally encountered at its northern limits in the vicinity of Eneabba-Mount Adams; thus, it declines steadily in size as the climate becomes warmer and drier further north.

Neltuma chilensis is a medium-sized deciduous tree, reaching a height of about 14 m (46 ft). The trunk is stout and gnarled, and can reach a metre (yard) in diameter. The bark is pale brown and thick, exhibiting cracks and vertical fissures. The leaves are pinnate, up to 20 cm (8 in) long, with twelve to twenty leaflets arranged in pairs.
Acacia koaia is usually distinguished by growing as a short (rarely more than 5 m or 16 ft), broad, gnarled tree; having the seeds longitudinally arranged in the pod; shorter, straighter phyllodes; and much denser wood.
Banksia serrata usually grows as a gnarled and misshapen tree up to 16 m (50 ft) tall, although in some coastal habitats it grows as a shrub of 1–3 m (3–10 ft), and on exposed coastal cliffs it has even been recorded as a prostrate shrub. As a tree it usually has a single, stout trunk with warty, knobbly grey bark up to 3 cm (1.2 in) thick.

Krummholz (German: krumm, "crooked, bent, twisted" and Holz, "wood") — also called knieholz ("knee timber") — is a type of stunted, deformed vegetation encountered in the subarctic and subalpine tree line landscapes, shaped by continual exposure to fierce, freezing winds.
The gnarled and pungent tree or shrub typically grows to a height of 2 to 4 metres (7 to 13 ft) [2] and has glabrous branchlet. Like most species of Acacia it has phyllodes rather than true leaves. The vertically deflexed phyllodes tend to be terete and straight with a length of 9 to 22 cm (3.5 to 8.7 in) and a width of 1 to 1.5 mm (0.039 to 0. ...
