Banksia, one of our native plants. This one is different to all other
Banksias in that it is a dark green in the early stages, no other local
Banksia has that eye-catching hue during the immature flower phase. It is
only found in coastal Qld and NSW, I found this one in the Mooloolah River
National Park this afternoon.

Very nice, looks like it's made of matches. :-)
