Ivory curls

Ivory curl flower, Buckinghamia celsissima. This species is a tree native to rainforests in Queensland where it may reach 100m in height. These flowers are from a street tree in Sydney, Australia, that is only about 3.5m tall.

 

The flowers look superficially like spider flowers, Grevillea sp. Buckinghamia like Grevillea is in the family Proteaceae.
