White Waratah

A white waratah. The Telopea speciosissima. Also known as 'The Bridal Gown' or 'Shady Lady' white waratah. It is a protea. The more common variety is red. This one is rarely seen.

 

I discovered this white waratah hiding in amongst a grove of rhododendrons in the very shaded lower garden of 'Nooroo' - an historic house (1880) and its extensive garden, open to the public today, Sunday 11th October, 2020.

 

Nooroo is located at 11-15 Church Lane, Mount Wilson, in the Blue Mountains. See:
