Wow, what a plant!

Went to the QOS show last weekend. The Spring bloomers are just starting
to
show. (There's q straight line if ever I saw one!) Many lovely plants
there,
but a small selection of the Aussie species & hybrids over the next couple
of
nights.

This was a lovely specimen of Dockrillia teretifolia. I was speaking to
one of
the judges, who said it just missed out on Champion Specimen.

For the purists who like a good closeup of a bloom, this species typically
presents upside down so that, short of kneeling very awkwardly & then
pointing
the camera up, you can't get a good view of the flower :-(
