This year's rains have produced a
better showing than the drought affected plants we saw last year.
As usual they still grow in the middle of other plants (helps protect them from being eaten), so it's hard to photograph them in the wild! Photographed at Wilsons Promontory National Park. See our first pedaglossa page.
