Flower sample from the gardens

Bright - Victoria - Australia

This particular one is a Banksia ericifolia, the Heath Banksia. I was so envious seeing
this growing so well, I have tried to grow this particular banksia with only minimal
success. They flower in winter and spring and are followed by quaint seed cones.

Here is a sample of other flowers growing in the resort garden where we stayed for a week.
Choisya ternata


and this beautiful little camellia
