My garden, on 10th May 2024

The trunkless palm in the centre of the frame is Allagoptera caudescens (formerly Polyandrococos caudescens) from northeast Brazil.

The white plant on the left side of the path is Jacobaea (Senecio) maritima 'Silver Dust', a very common bedding plant in cool to warm temperate regions, originating from the western Mediterranean basin. It is somewhat surprising that it tolerates Brisbane's wet-summer, dry-winter subtropical climate.

I rather like having very uncommon and very common plants all mixed together.
