Trees on a rocky ledge (Tristaniopsis laurina)
Ferns include Todea barbara, Pyrrosia rupestris & Tmesipteris truncata.
The fork fern is hanging down from the ledge, centre left.
Most of the leaves here are from the Coachwood (Ceratopetalum apetalum). The bigger stems are the Water Gum (Tristaniopsis laurina).
The soils here are poor, and do not support sub tropical rainforest plants. The nearby rainforest is depauperate "a pauper", or dry rainforest growing on shallow soils on sandstone.
The rainfall here being some 1,500 mm a year. It's wet place for a "dry rainforest". Very wet yesterday morning.
