| Bloomin' News - Now is a great time to see Hakeas out in often spectacular flower.
Hakeas are closely related to Grevilleas and the two can be hard to tell apart. The fruits or seed capsules can settle the matter though as Hakeas have large, thick, woody seed capsules, while those of Grevilleas are thin and papery. Some hakeas have brightly coloured flowers like the Grass leaved Hakea (Hakea francisiana) that is found throughout the Great Victoria Desert.
There are several Hakeas posted in the Wildflowers section on ExplorOz. Can you add some more to the list? |
