Plural of blackboy; multiple Australian grasstrees (Xanthorrhoea) with distinctive dark trunks.
Plural form of 'blackboy' (from 'black' and 'boy'). Used to describe multiple plants of this species.
Many Australian place names include 'Blackboy' references, but the terminology is now considered outdated and insensitive, leading to efforts to restore the plant's traditional Aboriginal names and the term 'grasstree'.
