Andrea B. Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Isn't this a pretty thing!! Wikipedia calls this an Australian Flame Pea or Heart-leaf Flame Pea. Does it have that as a Common Name in Australia? If so, may we please add it to the title?? Link to comment
DaveO Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 Elliott & Jones call it Heart-leaved Flame Pea Link to comment
OlDoinyo Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Another red flower that is UV-bright--interesting. I ran across another example of that a few months ago. Link to comment
