Macro Victorian Christmas Bush

Victorian Christmas Bush · 03:51 PM

Quite a showy plant as far as Aussie natives go. Large sprays of these little flowers. Victorian Christmas Bush, Coranderrk, or Prostanthera lasianthos depending on what brand of cultural baggage you want to burden it with

All up about 15-20 mm. They tend to grow anywhere wet in the hills so are often seen in the same areas as Mountain Ash and tree ferns -- near you: Kinglake, Dandenong Ranges, Yarra Ranges etc.

Very nice, we don't see them over here either.

That was not what I expected to see from the title. It is a very pretty flower, well exposed and I thank you for showing us.
