Western Australia is famed for its wildflowers which bloom mainly from August to November. It is estimated that there are more than 8,000 species of flowering plants in the state.

The Southwest part of Western Australia has over 3,000 species alone, many of which are unique because of the state's isolation. You can find wildflowers almost everywhere but the Jarrah forests in the southwest are particularly rich.

This is just a small sampler to whet your appetite. Many people will recognize the common names of flowering plants: wattle, gum, featherflower, cone flower, mulla mulla, honey myrtle and mountain bells.
