Australian Grass Tree

Grass trees epitomize the Australian bush. They are beautiful, ancient, hardy, thrive in nutrient-poor soils and respond to wildfire by flowering profusely. Most species are extremely slow growing and are often very long lived with some estimated to be 350 - 450 years old.

 

I photographed this particular beauty at Sillers Lookout Arkaroola in the Flinders Ranges, South Australia.
