118/366 Fried egg plant
On our morning walk.
Gordonia axillaris or the Fried Egg Plant is a tall, fast growing, evergreen shrub or small tree that closely resembles the Camellia. It has slender, oval, green leaves, and bears large white, crepey, open-faced flowers with brilliant, golden yellow stamens in the centre - looking like that of a fried egg.
It commemorates James Gordon, an eighteenth-century London nurseryman. Some of the flowers grow in the leaf axils, hence the species name, axillaris.
