Hi Steve

A great macro shot of the pretty flower. We don't have these in Europe, so it is always interesting to see something new!
Sorry for lack of contact recently, I've been away on hols.

Best wishes
Peter

quelle adorable petite plante !!

This is a plant that lives in the harshest of environments in the world. High on the huge granite rocks of the area. they only live on the rain fall they "die" or going to Sleep mode

Autumn ( Summer colour)

once the rain falls they wake up and come alive. in summer they are in hibernation or in what those of Europe would know as autumn mode. It has a bite as I found out he very first time I met the plant in the dark trying to set up the shot for the milky way. a true survivor of its environment.

The PIP is a very accurate way of how you find then in the wild in less than 60mm of soil, nothing but rock below and harsh sun above and yet it live very well.
