[Photos] Koondoola and wildflowers.
Oct. 8th, 2012 07:37 amThere was a massive fire earlier this year that devastated the Koondoola bushland,
and unfortunately it hasn't been recovering very well at all.
Still, during our hike, we did find some signs of endemic and local herbaceous natives,
even amongst the carpet of wild gladiolus.
People often love the latter, but it's an invasive pest, and can be legally pulled up.
Podotheca gnaphaliodes along Alexander Drive. Also known as 'golden long-heads.'
