Banksia integrifolia is commonly known, as coastal banksia. It is grows along the east coast of Australia. Its leaves have dark green upper surfaces and white undersides. Unlike most Banksia species it does not require bushfire to trigger the release of its seeds. The wood is pink to red and it is sometimes used for cabinet panelling and in ornamental turnery. It is useful firewood. Banksia integrifolia produces a dark amber-coloured honey and the species is highly valued by beekeepers because it produces large amounts of pollen and nectar during autumn and winter, thus helping support hives at a time when little else is flowering. Historically, indigenous Australians obtained nectar from the tree by stroking the flower spikes then licking their hands, or by steeping flower spikes in a coolamon overnight. They also used the flower spikes as hairbrushes. Early settlers used the nectar as syrup for sore throats and colds and Bushmen would impregnate barren "cones" with fat to make a slow-burning candle.
