Within Australia there are about 40 genera of Boronia!
Do they happen to come in shades of blood, by chance?
ryn: my windowsills are far too cold for a bulb
Only if you don't shine a light on them in the dark, Shadowlor!
Ryn: Most bulbs love the cold, just turn on the hot water every now and again and place it above the sink :)
Another lovely find Anon, bet you knew Id love the pink! I also like how you shot it from below :)
Lavender, pink is sort of close to lavender heehee. A Boronia bush is not one anybody should attempt to climb, hence 'undershot' HAHA!
I didn't realize there were so many forms - I thought there was 'pink' and 'brown' :-)
Boronia is one of my favorite natives - the scent is just to die for and I think I appreciate it even more so because of the short flowering time.
A woman from the town I grew up in created a boronia perfume which smelt like boronia but missed out on the magic of the plant. (my opinion only of course)
They all have different leaves too Mountaingirl! A favourite of mine also, and as a kid sure it was an addition to one of my 'perfume experiments' HHA.
Pretty in Pink, I love the top one and second one from the top... but don't expect me to stand outside your window with my stereo, ha!
What has happened to acoustic guitars Albina, ha?
The second and third photos look like wispy plates of flowers, or maybe I'm not getting enough sleep. Either way I like it.
Thanks Modroom :) Maybe you need sleep AND food?
Gee Anon, your knowledge of Australian flora is as remarkable and impressive as your knowledge of birds.
I am learning WITH you Ces! :)
How fragrant is it? the ones I know smell divine!
Plates? UFO? Pink flowery aliens???
When you see Hellcat, tell her she's a naughty kitten compared to me!!
I can't reach right now Simon hehhee. They do smell wonderful :)
If you want them to be LilySomething :) Do the Pink flowery aliens dance?
I wouldn't DARE Shadowlor! HAHHAHHA
