This was or originated from a 1920s planting by a crew from Canberra Nursery following the plan of the Griffin's to have red flowering plantings on Red Hill. A lot of peas are having an autumn flowering this year a wonderful oddity

Thanks, Michael. I am new to Naturemapr and actually am not completely familiar of what is acceptable to post. I haven't uploaded any images of the Grevillea rosmarinifolia because I had heard about the 'red hill' plan from the early days.
