Darwinia leiostyla or Coolamon pink

Darwinias were named after Erasmus Darwin, rather than his grandson, Charles, as most people would think.
They flower through spring.
The species name lejostyla means smooth style.

Another fascinating bud. The leaves on this are really interesting and I see you have quite a few of these. Super close up and depth of field. V.
