History

In April 2023, the Queensland Government decided to reflect the growing population of the region by creating five new localities named Corymbia, Greenstone, Lilywood, Wagtail Grove, and Waraba by excising parts of the existing localities of Bellmere, Rocksberg, Upper Caboolture, and Wamuran. [4] [5] [6] Lilywood was created from land formerly within Upper Caboolture. [1]

The name is a combination of the words of lily and wood, with the lily referring to the blue flax-lily ( Dianella caerulea ), a plant native to the Caboolture area. [1]
