Flowers
The Bluetts Block site is very scrubby with minimal grasses and mostly leaf litter on the ground. The main flowering plants are cassinia and burgen. The cassinia is going to seed and the burgen has finished flowering. In very small numbers (and no insects on them) were ivy goodenia, yellow hawkweed, centaury, sticky everlasting, hibbertia, small st johns wort and cudweed (I think).
