Hobart folks. Clear your schedule on the 11th April and come to the Field Nats and have a chat with @davidghamilton1
Super quick Melbs trip to see the Dead South and go to the gardens... next time I want to visit when the best bit is open!
My first Day Ten!. James and I went back and checked out some more spots of the mystery Stellaria. I’m gonna love having every second Friday off work!
Had a marvellous week out seed collecting with a bunch of wonderful humans. We stopped in on the way home to check out the Viola improcera which has recently been found in Tas. Crazy stuff. Right on a popular track.
Discaria pubescens. My new favourite spiky friend.
Making the most of field work. Nice to be back into the swing of things. Well kinda back into it. My little leggies have wondered what’s hit them.

@fiona_gumboots Fab article. I wash I had been there, in fact I’m still wishing to get back to Tas! One more week…
@fiona_gumboots Cheers for species list and clearing up NO bears 🐻😉
TLC & @BushHeritageAus hosted ‘Friends of Grasslands’ a conservation group from #Canberra interested in understanding how the #MidlandsConservationPartnership is delivering great outcomes for grasslands & benefitting farm productivity.
Fabulous self seeding Cyclamen coum at the base of a giant redwood tree @HolehirdGardens now. Mixed among them are autumn flowering Cyclamen hederifolium. A real case of right plant, right place!
So excited, next week I will be nerding out about my favourite plant #Pilostyles hamiltoniorum on Gardening Australia! This cryptic little #endoparasite is gonna make its TV debut!
That wraps up my Mt Wellington plant hunt! Here’s a last few shots of the eery morning in the clouds I had up there looking for plants!
@fiona_gumboots Ah will do, hope to come back because there’s soo many cool plants
#Epacris, I think E. serpyllifolia growing amongst the Expcarpus! #Ericaceae
But damnit I want a cheap plastic made in China flag that I'll toss in the bin to show how patriotic I am Oi. Etc.
All the best #Telopea truncata I saw where right alongside the road which was a pain but managed to fine one small one still going! Dewy from the clouds rolling through! #Proteaceae
#Leptospermum lanigerum #Myrtaceae, the wooly tea tree, quite large and showy flowers! The wooly undersides of the leaves capturing water droplets from the clouds passing over My Wellington!
#Planocarpa petiolaris #Ericaceae tiny flowers but showy new growth! Forming dense compact shrubs at the peak of Mt Wellington!
And here’s some marvellous Euphrasia on the Main Range, Kosciuszko NP (last week of Dec 2023)
#Euphrasia striata #Orobanchaceae! Finally getting to see some Australia’s Orobanchaceae! Growing up Mount Wellington in Tas! 😍😍 just look at how pretty they are!!
Some alps flora action for you to see out 2023. Thx for all the social intercourse here over the years you tweeps. And let’s hope we can turn this planetary Titanic around soon. Go well 😊
