Australian Native Wildflower as Garden Specimen

 

Comment

Pittosporum undulatum occurs naturally from south eastern Queensland and eastern New South Wales to eastern Victoria. It has become entrenched as an environmental weed in parts of south eastern Australia where it has been cultivated for its floral perfume. It was first grown in England in 1789 and has been popular in Mediterranean climatic regions such as California.

Dave, you have been so good about documenting a fluorescent version of each of your flowers. Thank you!

 

I've been rather lazy about setting up for fluor work with my wildflowers. I must do better in the upcoming season.
