Tawny-crowned honeyeater on a red and green kangaroo paw.
The south-west of Western Australia has one of the richest and most diverse floras in the world, attracting visitors from many countries
   Of the 11,000 species recorded from WA, 75 per cent grow in the south-west.
   Many can be seen along road sides, but a walk in the national parks and forests can be very rewarding.
   This selection was taken from a booklet published by the Department of Conservation and Land Management. Thanks go to the authors of Common Wildflowers of the South-West Forests Andrew Brown, Greg Keighery and Carolyn Thomson and CALM contributors Andrew Brown, Babs and Bert Wells and Grant Wardell-Johnson.
