These photos show ACT Wildflowers at their Best. In this Mt Majura location, "a riot of colours" from Parrot peas, Hibbertia, Blue Bells, Hoary Sunrays.... and very few Weeds in this location (particularly No St John's Wort here, which is such a problem at nearby Mt Majura locations). How to classify this sighting ? Endemic ACT Wildflowers Must be Protected (from weeds) for future generations...

I can't ID the Pea from the photos, from these photos probably best to confirm as hoary sunray??

OK with that, perhaps CNM could create a New category of Posts, like Habitat, or Niche, or Plant Community or something. ? Actually my main interest (point) by posting this sighting is to Show some evidence of Positive/Good news, with a relatively in tact Vegetation COMMUNITY, not so altered by Weeds (as yet...), like so many Nearby areas.
