Chocolate Lilies en masse |

Trigger Plant Stylidium? |
When I have my car serviced, it is always returned with one of those little sweet Christmas trees in a plastic bag. These are supposed to make your car smell pleasant, but I find the scent overpowering.

Yesterday, walking in the Monument, the scent was just as overpowering. It was so strong I thought perhaps I had one of the car perfume packs in my camera bag. It was a sweet and chocolaty aroma.
Chocolate lilies! I have never seen them growing so densely. The ground is covered in them to almost a metre in height. They are not just in patches, they are everywhere. As I waded through them my legs and trousers became smeared with patches of purple.

I knelt down at one stage to take picture and without having to move off my knees, I was able to photograph at least a dozen other flowering plants. There were yellows, blues, whites, purples, pinks and oranges, all there, mixed up together.
