chrisjonkersDescription
Although covered in snow, photos show the scape/spike ratio, and that plants were trunkless. Leaves blue-green, triangular (?) in cross-section, and a photo of spent flower spike. Xanthorrhoea resinosa seems to be the main one recorded here. Along track to Bald Trig, Gardens of Stone SCA.

Lots of flower spikes going up this year. There has been no fire for a long time. It has been dry, and we have just hit average rainfall for year to date after being under for some years.
