October 30 2023: Darling Range flora, “up close” (#11 in series)

 

 

In this episode no flowers are readily visible, but its heroes are flowering plants.

Their genus has circa 700 species and its tallest members are “our” planet’s tallest flowering plants.

Most Eucalyptus species call Australia home, although many now flourish – some of them rather too well – on every other human-inhabited continent.

They dominate most Australian forests and woodlands.

Wandoo woodlands exist only in certain parts of Australia’s southwest.

No matter how well-travelled, persons lucky enough to have experienced wandoo woodland tend to regard it as something unique and highly likeable…notwithstanding the “unhappy” fact that ticks are also partial to it.
