Garden escapee?? by kartia

Garden escapee??

Out for a bushwalk today while the sun's shining. These were growing quite near to the beginning of the track and I've no idea what they are. Can anyone enlighten me? Google image search wasn't very helpful 🤷‍♀️ but I know there's a braintrust here!
What a great find and shot! They look very much like our pigs ears, although ours are a bit fuller (cotyledon orbiculata) a S African succulent.

They only flower in winter and are rather stunning. I will be posting some soon ;-)

It does look like pigs ear but the only ones I’ve ever seen are yellow and orange. I love the colours of this

Beautiful shot of what I think is a kalanchoe, possibly daigremontiana. Common name 'Mother of thousands'. https://savvygardening.com/mother-of-thousands-plant/

It can be an environmental weed. As you say, a garden escapee.

@ankers70 I think that could be it thx. I'll have to go back and check out the leaves, simply because they looked amazing on that link! And rip it out while I'm there . . . I wonder if it's ok to take weeds home from a national park?

It is gorgeous what a lovely flower. I am hopeless at identifying plants and flowers

Very pretty colours.

On plant snap it says that they are Small Bluebells. Its a perennial herb

My photo identification agrees with Suzanne. A lovely flower.

Not sure if you can remove weeds officially but you can notify a 'Friends of . . . ' group if there is one for that park or notify Parks and Wildlife. @kartia

Completely delightful flowers.

It's very pretty- but if it's an invasive- I don't think anyone would mind you lending a hand and picking it.

@ankers70 @wakelys @mirroroflife @ludwigsdiana all very good suggestions based on the flowers, but when I went back to check, the leaves are totally different - back to square one! I'll post the leaves in my other album if you care to look, no obligation!

@kjarn You're right Kathy, I never noticed the colour on my cell ;-)

@kartia Did you check if they are in the cotyledon orbiculata family? Their leaves are totally different ;-

I like it! Whatever it is called!

Lovely!
