A modern day Bower
Mountain devil, Lambertia formosa, was a real curiosity for me when I first moved to NSW, as it’s not found in other states.
One of the many beauties in Tomaree’s heathy woodlands. The devil name comes from the horns on the woody fruit.

NPA are leading more wildflower walks in Spring 2024.
Flannel Flowers, Actinotus helianthi, majestic beauties love sandy soils. Their soft, downy petals are like flannel fabric
Red Fire Orchid, a bit straggly, hidden under a bush, rarely seen if not after a fire
Red Beard Orchid, a little gem, keep your eyes focused low to the ground.
Watch this space as the treasure trove grows …
