I missed posting one of the native flowers (well, two actually, the next will be up in coming days) from my walk around my main park lake from a couple of weeks ago.
It is a brilliantly coloured shrub known as a Flame pea, or sometimes the heart leaf flame pea.

A blaze of colour in the midday sun. 🙂

Close up the flowers sort of resemble those of the sweet pea which may account for the common name.

Very similar flower to the ‘egg and bacon’ plant – except the leaves have a different arrangement. Different genus also, they are a Eutaxia. 🙂

I like these. Looks like they are a variant on the Martian Weed.

I don’t think they came from Mars…. but you never know?
