Kings Fire Grevillea. Red splindly looking brush like creature with eyes on the ends of prehensile tentacles which will search you out at night and give you butterfly kisses if it can manage to break in to your house.

#2135 - Grevillea juniperina ssp. sulphurea
Tumblr media
One of the seven subspecies of Grevillea juniperina, which is also known as prickly spider-flower. All seven are native to the east of New South Wales, and southeastern Queensland. One subspecies, G. j. juniperina, is restricted to Western Sydney and its environs and is therefore threatened by housing development and other loss of habitat.
Scottish botanist Robert Brown described the first one in 1810, from specimens collected at Port Jackson where Sydney is now centred, and it has become a favorite in cultivation and hyridisation.
As you might guess from the shape of the flowers, bird-pollinated. The bushes, which can grow to 3m high, grow in clay-derived or alluvial soil in woodlands, but don't survive bushfire. New plants, however, sprout rapidly for seed after the fires have moved through.

Grevillea bipinnatifida
Grevillea is a large Australian genus in the Protea Family, ranging from short shrubs to trees. They are very variable in leaf form and size, and until they come into flower it might not be at all obvious that they belong together in one genus. This one is Grevillea bipinnatifida, from near Perth in Western Australia. It has very interesting dissected leaves with an unusual color - kind of a grayish-yellowish green, and it has a low spreading habit. Its curlicue red flowers give it away as a Grevillea.

Embroidery Challenge - November ‘22
This little book cover was inspired by a friend who asked me to design a panel for her featuring Australian native plants. The Waratah on the front cover was inspired by one embroidered on my sewing group’s banner. I chose red blooms in honour of my sewing group’s 40th (Ruby) anniversary. Each of the plants featured - Waratah, wattle, kangaroo paw, bottlebrush and grevillea - can be found on my property. There is, of course, a bee!

TL;DR – We explore all the beautiful flowers I came across during my recent trip to Gladstone.
