Wahlenbergia of various species (of which I am not expert) are making a lovely show at present whether around Bega township or in the bush like here at Black Range.

Hi Matthew, That's the common one, W. capillaris (used to be communis) behaving like that. Here at Brogo too. It seems to like disturbance. I noticed it was one of the first things to come back on a burnt roadside cutting just north of Bega in 2018, and it has become more abundant in our orchard under a regime of regular burning off of the grass. Drought has a similar effect, or rather rain after drought.
