NAME

Paperbark Street	Melaleuca cajuputi
(Paperbark Tea-Tree)
	An Australian native tree naturally occurring in the Northern Territory, northern Queensland and northern Western Australia.
A medium-sized tree to about 25 metres tall with a single stem.  The bark is layered and papery.  The crown has a silvery appearance. The leaves are straight or curved and often hairy. 
	
Wollemi Place	Wollemia nobilis
(Wollemi Pine)	The Wollemi Pine is a 'living fossil', first discovered in 1994 by David Noble. 
A conifer that grows to a height of 35 metres with a trunk diameter of over one metre. The leaves vary from bright lime-green when young to yellow-green as they mature. Its bark is particularly unusual, and looks like bubbling chocolate.
Its discovery was particularly significant as it belongs to a new genus of plants previously known only as fossils that date back to the age of dinosaurs, some 150 million years ago. 
It is one of the world’s rarest species with only 43 adult trees known in three small stands in the Wollemi National Park, west of Sydney, Australia.
