The local Sulphur-crested #Cockatoos are doing their usual destructive thing to the flowers in the local silky oaks (#Grevillea robusta). The ground below the trees is covered with neatly detached flower heads.

There's always food available here.
A #rosella eating an Australian native, but not local, #grevillea gaudichaudi flower. A ground cover that umm, covers ground for around 2-5m. Lots of flowers.
Rosellas also eat the grass seeds.

Cloud pruned (or perhaps Dr Seuss pruned...) #Grevillea olivacea has brought the red fireworks flowers to the fore. #Proteaceae #bloomscrolling

#Banks’ #grevillea flowering clusters are rustic, unkempt and straggly. But I love ‘em.
They’re colourful, unique and oh so aussie.
Endemic to Queensland, they grow prolifically here in Melbourne. And they are a visual delight to behold. They make my heart sing.

#GrevilleaBanksii, commonly known as Banks' #grevillea, Byfield waratah, red flowered silky oak and dwarf silky oak.
In Hawaii it is known as a kāhili flower!
It is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to Queensland.
Grows very well here in #Melbs and flowers prolifically, even in
#winter.📍 - #olympicpark #melbourne #australia

#WoollyGrevillea is just a stunning floral specimen, don’t you think?
#Grevillea comes in so many shapes, sizes and forms.
This spreading shrub with narrowly linear leaves and clusters of pink to red, and cream-coloured flowers, are simply a delight.
So healthy too.
This species is endemic to south-eastern Australia

You may recall this smallish, sad and dehydrated #grevillea from yesterday. It hasn’t rained (sufficiently) for the past fortnight, so many reserve flora are starting to feel the pinch.
As suggested by @gr8nanjan (thx Nan Jan!!) I drove past midday today and poured around 1.2 litres at the base of this plant (was 32 degrees c, 90F, sun high in the sky) and revisited it around 6pm after work.
The first 2 shots are from midday… the bottom 2 pics are from 6pm.
Amazing what a small amount of water can do to help these #Australian #natives bounce back.
The flowers look more abundant, for mine, and back to some semblance of hydration normality.
It was around mid 33 degrees (92F) the time of these evening pics, sun was lower in the sky. Around 2 hours from sunset.
Was it due to less intensity of sunlight and the plant had recovered by redistributing moisture from its leaves (later in the day)… or was it due to the relative meagrely amount of water it received?
Uncertain (I’m not a botanist!), but was an intriguing exercise!
Any thoughts or botanist expertise welcomed!
Gave it another 1.2 litres of water just for good measure!

This #Grevillea is living its best life on the farm.
It’s flowering prime is coming to an end, however there are a few still flowers displaying proudly - and one was host to a couple of visitor #bees as I took these shots!
Banks' grevillea (this one) is mostly found on the #queensland coast from #Ipswich to #Yeppoon, but sometimes further inland. It mostly grows in woodland and forest / bush areas.
