This is quite an old photo. I took it about this time last year, took me ages to figure out how to get the phone to focus on the flower instead of the bush. So this is actually my first decent photo of a flower. This is a flame pea.I use to call them Egg and Bacon Plants when I was younger, turns out that is a different (but simmilar species) plant. These are also one of my favourite natives, only thing is the bush looks thin so to speak. Its quite bushy for an perennial, but the stems are always really thin and flimsy so to speak, so it has this delicate, un-matured look about it. As a mass planting they look spectacular when in bloom.
