Kangaroo Paws

Bunko.T Loc: Western Australia.
 
I posted Wreath flowers recently, unique to Western Australia. While surfing my archives, I came across pics I have of Kangaroo Paws, also unique to Western Australia. Found in the South west corner of the state.
I believe they have been used in the cut flower industry in other parts of the world.
They also come in slightly different varieties & colours, but these are the most dramatic in appearance.

That is iconic Western Australia... Particularly that large species of Kangaroo Paw.

Wish I was there Bunko! I love Perth and its people, and its environs too.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
