We were on a wildflower walk through the local bush and came across this stand of Australian Grass Trees, better known as Blackboys. Wherever you go in the Australian bush you are sure to see a lot of these.
-
Every now and then we left the car and walked forward to check that we could get through the next section. This was an occasion when a 4WD would definitely have come in handy! The setting is near Kalbarri on WA’s mid west coast and for the record we DID get through!

This was taken locally in the Yanchep National Park, some 50 kms north of Perth in Western Australia. The big tree is an Australian Grass Tree, known colloquially as a Blackboy due to the burnt stump, which is a feature of this species of tree

A great little spot near Keppel Falls near Marysville, Victoria, Australia. HDR in Photomatix :) then played around with in Adobe Lightroom. This is a redo of an earlier go at the same image below: I felt it was a bit too saturated and preferred the newer rendition, let me know what you think! On Saturday the 7th of February my family lost our home away from home at Marysville, as well as our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks and our Abyssinian cat. My condolences go to anyone who also lost family, friends or property on this terrible weekend, and I know deep down that Marysville will be back and better than ever, in the near future… Click here for my other images of the Yarra Ranges Featured in the Yarra Valley & Ranges Group in February 2009 This version as a medium mounted print and with a black border:

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery On the Outskirts of Mt Kaputar For the Australian Bush & Rainforest Photography Challenge: / The Edge of the Forest Mt Kaputar National Park, New South Wales. The Mt Kaputar (pronounced cap you tar) National Park lies to the east of Narrabri (approximately 53Km) and to the west of Barraba (approximately 55Km). Mt Kaputar, on the western edge of the Great Dividing Range, is the highest point until you reach Africa, and from its peak (on a clear day), about 10 percent of New South Wales is visible for 360º. The Mt Kaputar National Park is very much a local secret and holds a diverse range of vegetation and wildlife, including many threatened species. As much as 17 million years of erosion has sculpted the now extinct Nandewar volcano and what is left offers a majestic skyline of rocky outcrops with spectacular views. Mt Kaputar’s summit is 1524m and there are 11 marked walking tracks.

The Australian Grass tree, colloqually known as the Black Boy tree. This awkward shaped speciman stands about a metre and a half, about 5’ 8’ and would be appromately 75 years old if it one of the fast growing types. Xanthorrhoea is a genus of flowering plants native to Australia and a member of family Xanthorrhoeaceae. The Xanthorrhoeaceae are monocots, part of order Asparagales. There are 28 species and five subspecies of Xanthorrhoea. Flowers are borne on a long spike above a bare section called a scape, the total length can be up to four metres long in some species. Flowering occurs in a distinct flowering period, which varies for each species. Flowering can be stimulated by bushfire, in which case it occurs in the next flowering period after the fire. Xanthorrhoea grow very slowly, after an initial establishment phase the average rate of growth varies for each species but can be as high as about 2½ cm per year. Thus a five-metre tall member of one of the fastest growing Xanthorrhoea would be about 200 years old. A slow one may have a lifespan of 600 years. In the bush the flowers can be used as a compass. This is because flowers on the warmer, sunnier side of the spike (usually the north facing side) often open before the flowers on the cooler side facing away from the sun. Xanthorrhoea is important to the Aboriginal people who live where it grows. The flowering spike makes the perfect fishing spear. It is also soaked in water and the nectar from the flowers gives a sweet tasting drink. The resin from Xanthorrhoea plants is used in spear-making and is an invaluable adhesive for Aboriginal people, often used to patch up leaky coolamons (water-containers) and even didgeridoos.

Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery White Hibiscus Meraukensis Overland Telegraph Track, Cape York Peninsula, Far North Queensland. 100% of proceeds received from Redbubble in respect to sales of “Hibiscus Meraukensis” will be donated to “thegreataustraliancancerbushwalk” for the Cancer Council. Please check out Michael Mitchell’s website thegreataustraliancancerbushwalk Hibiscus…from Greek, hibiskos, the marsh mallow, a malvaceous plant that grows in marshy conditions. / meraukensis… reference to the Merauk area in New Guinea where the type specimen was collected Found in woodlands in tropical areas of Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia. Also occurs in islands to the north of Australia. Hibiscus meraukensis is a small to medium annual shrub up to about 2 metres in height. Plants appears during the tropical wet season and die off during the following dry season. The leaves are hairy when young and quite large, up to 180 mm long by 100 mm wide. The flowers are large, up to 100 mm in diameter of typical hibiscus shape and range in colour from white through to pink or mauve. In common with most Hibiscus species, the individual flowers last only 1-2 days but new flowers continue to open over a long period, generally in autumn. The flowers are followed by seed capsules containing a number of seeds. H.meraukensis has received only limited cultivation and is not well known even among native plant enthusiasts. It is an attractive and quick growing species for tropical and sub-tropical climates and, although usually an annual, it can be readily propagated so that plants are always available in the garden. Its performance is untested in temperate areas but should perform well in a warm position such as against a brick or stone wall where heat is retained in the structure. It prefers full sun and moist, well drained soils.
