Australian coastal banjine macro

Pimelea ferruginea is an Australian native, found in coastal areas in the south-west of the country, in sandy and rocky soils.

 

This is a low, densely growing shrub which rarely exceeds 1 m in height by 1 to 2 m in width.

 

The small flower clusters seen here, occur at the ends of the branches. In this image, the flowers within the centre of the cluster have still to open.

 

The cluster is just 30 mm diameter, with each individual flower being tiny indeed.

 

This is variety 'white sparkle'.
