"Banksia sessilis" var. "sessilis" is the most populous and most widespread variety of "Banksia sessilis" (Parrot Bush).

Description

The leaves of this variety are larger than those of "B. sessilis" var. "cygnorum" but smaller than those of "B. sessilis" var. "cordata". It differs from "B. sessilis" var. "flabellifolia" in having lobes at the base of many leaves.cite book | first = Tony | last = Cavanagh | coauthords = Pieroni, Margaret | year = 2006 | title = The Dryandras | publisher = Melbourne: Australian Plants Society (SGAP Victoria); Perth: Wildflower Society of Western Australia | id = ISBN 1-876473-54-1] Flora of Australia Online | name = "Dryandra sessilis" (Knight) A.R.Mast & K.R.Thiele var.

Taxonomy

As the autonymous variety, "B. sessilis" var. "sessilis" emcompasses the type material of the species; thus collections of this variety date back to the 1791 visit of Archibald Menzies to King George Sound.cite journal | first = Alex | last = George | year = 1996 | title = New taxa and a new infrageneric classification in "Dryandra" R.Br. (Proteaceae: Grevilleoideae) | journal = Nuytsia | volume = 10 | issue = 3 | pages = 313–408] However the autonym was not needed until 1996, when Alex George published the other three varieties. As this taxon was then placed within the genus "Dryandra", this varieties name was then "Dryandra sessilis" var. "sessilis". It was transferred to its current name in 2007, when Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele transferred "Dryandra" into "Banksia".cite journal | author = Mast, Austin R. and Kevin Thiele | year = 2007 | title = The transfer of Dryandra R.Br. to Banksia L.f. (Proteaceae) | journal = Australian Systematic Botany | volume = 20 | pages = 63–71 | doi = 10.1071/SB06016]

Distribution and habitat

"B. sessilis" var. "sessilis" occurs in a wide belt running from Regans Ford and Moora in the north, southeast to Collie and Bremer Bay.

Cultivation

It is a hardy plant that tolerates a wide range of soils and conditions, including drought and moderate frost. It flowers heavily, and produces an abundance of honey. However it is too lark for smaller gardens, and in suitable conditions can produce many seedlings.
