A belated entry for the weekly photo challenge
Welcome to the new home of An Evolving Scientist. There may be a few “rough edges” around this, but they will get sorted out over the next days/weeks.
Back in July, on another platform, was a short post about the unusual flower on our Xanthorrhoea glauca.
Some weeks having passed, it is time for an update.
Xanthorrhoea glauca, common name ‘grass tree’, is native to Australia. Often used in landscaping, it is slow growing. In fact, when we planted ours, we wondered if we would live to see it flower. 2017, and the first flower has appeared, although not yet fully ‘open’. Normally ramrod straight, it seems to be bending to follow the light. It is surely unusual!
