Verbena bonariensis

a woody native very hard to distinguish from similar introduced verbena, but perfect for a purple rainbow day

please forgive me for fewer comments on your beautiful images here today as the load is feeling a little heavy, and my knees are bending a bit today. I love this place

I know it's dreadful to anthropomorphise animals... but I think the Koalas' 'mum' should give herself a pat on the back and a big hug today.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Lovely and vibrant- which is what your work does for the koalas- it keeps them vibrant. Remember you are not alone- so many of us support you here!!
