A few flowers

 On the afternoon of 28 September I went for a walk down the track that runs from opposite the Pony Club to the Old Betka Rd to check out the flowers.  There was surprisingly little blossom evident: most of the Acacia seemed to have already produced pods and the Leptospermum was still fuzzy buds.  Here are some snaps of those I did find.  I'll add full names later.

The first 2 are Wedding Bush - Ricinocarpos.


A Pea!
The only Acacia in flower here.
Pimelia
Comesperma - possibly the commonest flower
Hibbertia
Most of the Epacris seems to have been buried in the jungle.
Tetratheca
I moved on to the Powerlines track opposite Karbeethong Rd.  There was more blossom here but my sore back meant I didn't get off the track much.

Burchardia umbellata (Milkmaids)
A Patersonia
Very few Orchids visible - too cool and cloudy for Tetratheca to be open. This Glossodia was all I snapped.
