Climbing Fringe Lily

Thysanotus manglesianus

Many WA wildflowers are triggered into growth after fire.
I found this on the site of a massive 2010 bushfire.You
can see the scorched earth in the background.

Wonderful that something this beautiful can come out of destruction. Wonderful capture of these gorgeous flowers.

Beautifully captured, with perfectly fringed petals (of Thysanotus, Fringe Lily ?). I think the response after fire is widespread in Australian wildflowers.

That's amazing, such beautiful colours against the charred stems.

This is just wonderful. You could almost believe it's man-made.
