Wildflower time.

Now that we are getting into Spring the grassland wildflowers are starting to show up in the few places where they survive. In Gippsland the old cemeteries are some of the last strongholds, and Maffra has one of them. Went up there today to find the Golden Moth orchids in flower, with Chocolate Lilies, Billy Buttons, and the first wildflower I remember as a child, the Early Nancy. In the next few weeks the beautiful Purple Doubletail orchids, Milkmaids, and small Grass Lilies will come into flower. It's a nice time of the year.
