Grevillea Flower








This may be as much "full bloom" as we will see for this flower as the back segments have already been dropping off before the very front has opened.

These were taken this morning, two weeks since my last update, and exactly four weeks since my first photo of this flower. I hope you have enjoyed watching the opening of one of our amazing Australian natives as much as I have.

    It certainly is a very odd looking, yet very beautiful flower. Such a shame it's already losing segments.
