Descrição

We called this white, but up close the petals are finely striped with soft yellow.
Will the pollinators looking for standard red flowers find these pale ones? Will it set seeds? Will the new plants also be white?

Full marks to fire break maintenance around Silvermine Village - which lets the flowers bloom and set seeds for next year!

Obscured since we found that ONE white plant. Next to it a salmon striped, between the rest in red.

Descrição

Rafnia is a pea. And those 'twirled leaves' are its fruit. (I despair)

Wattleleaf. Gets mistaken for invasive Australian acacias. We found 2 plants, this mama and a baby https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/203487883 . When we walked back, we decided there are more inside the National Park fence.
