Hilarious! I have just spent the past hour searching for the name of this plant. To me, it looks very much like the kangaroo's paw, but the stem is completely wrong. Upon giving up my search I started to think about the botanical garden I was visiting when I snapped this lovely picture. Low and behold - what is the 'plant of the season'? Why it is the South African Rarity, of course!
Mount Tomah Botanical Gardens is a lovely day-trip outside of Sydney in the Blue Mountains. I highly recommend visiting here as the grounds are stunning, the views are impressive and the flowers are amazing.
