These cuttings are an advantage where the plant uses the axillary bud at the base of the petiole for new shoot growth and maximises available propagation material, as each node will produce a new plant.

The species, in some circumstances - such as when grown on rocky, terraced terrain - can grow buttress roots, but seldom does in flat, sandy areas. Trees & Shrubs - Dicotyledons. . Most fungus is specific to its host and normally will not infect other plant species. The floral tube covers the ovary and may continue above the ovary summit and form a disk around the ovary. Their compact growth may have created a microclimate for the fungus to establish and spread.

Myrtle rust (Puccinia psidii) is a fungal disease which infects plants in the Myrtaceae family. It grows in an open to exposed sunny position and is drought and frost tolerant. The genus name Agonis comes from the Greek agon, "a cluster", referring to the arrangement of the fruits. Many species may be infected including, species are mildly affected by two types of rust (. ) This may alter species balance and modify currently stable environments. It is drought tolerant once established and has good salt tolerance.

Agonis flexuosa (Willd.) The rooting medium must be well drained, sand may be used as long as it is thoroughly washed and leached of all salts. It was suspected that these symptoms were caused by an opportunistic pathogen and a sampling strategy was designed to investigate the causal agent of the cankers in symptomatic trees and the presence (or absence) of this pathogen as an endophyte of asymptomatic trees . These temperatures represent the lowest average. This will be about 14 days after infection, initially on the underside of the leaf but later on the upper leaf surface. This overall, results in a loss of vigour and in small plants may lead to death. Continued infection of new seedlings and young trees over time may hinder the regeneration of susceptible species in natural forests. Since myrtle rust was first detected in NSW in April 2010 it has spread across the eastern Australian landscape in bushland reserves, home gardens, commercial operations and amenity settings such as parks and street plantings. Leaves that are infected turn yellowish, grow longer and are thin. All plants have photographs that depict habit and identifying features. This zone has the majority of rain during winter in the west and summer in the east with high humidity. The genus name Agonis comes from the Greek agon, "a cluster", referring to the arrangement of the fruits.The species name flexuosa is Latin for "full of bends", referring to the zig-zag course of the stem, which changes direction at each leaf node. The underside of the leaf develops pale yellow fruiting bodies. Some plants are more palatable to deer but when a deer is hungry or during drought conditions there are no "Deer Proof" plants. Myrtle rust can lead to seedling death and increases costs of managing disease outbreaks. normally open with longitudinal slits or pores.
