First. I must say I am not an authority, but I do have a book on Sydney
Flora. The nearest that I can get to the image on the Rent-a-cloud site is
Dillwynia floribunda, which is common in the area, grows to 2m and
restricted to wet places in heath and woodland. It seems to be the only one
with a dense head of flowers going some way down the stem. If that is not
the right environment, it might be D. retorta which grows to 1m on dryer
areas in heath and woodland. Also common.

Yeah. You could be right there.

Pultenaea and Daviesia seem to have fewer flowers at the end of the stem.

That's the thing that worried me about my ealier "dets". :-)

The legumes in Australia are a very large family and determining them from
images not really practicable. But aren't they lovely!

The main problem with them, and much of the other Oz flora, is that
the flower show is often *very* short. Well, here in the tropics
anyway. I guess with the higher temperatures they're just too
promiscuous and rush to seed. ;-)

Hi People, can someone please tell me the name of this flower? I have
uploaded it on my site www.rent-a-cloud.com under 'Greencards' It's at
the beginning, yellow and named 'Wildflower' Visitors to my site ask
me for identification. I would be grateful for your help. I found this
flower on bushes north of Sydney, Australia. I do not know if it is an
Australian native. (My site is NOT commercial. It is my hobby for
videoclips and greeting cards of nature, free for personal use).
Thanks for your help - Klaus

Cheers, Phred.
