The Lesser Flannel Flower (Actinotus minor) is a small plant growing in moist heathland areas around the Sydney district.
It has small feathery white flowers, just 12mm wide, and is a smaller version of its more common relative, the Flannel Flower.
Oatley Park, Sydney, Australia.
G12, as is.

I live in Australia and enjoy bushwalking in the great outdoors, especially the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park.
My photographic interests are pretty much related to Australian landscapes, rustic Australia, historic Australia, Australian wildlife, flora, fauna, birds, etc. Guess I love the country I was born and live in.
