Today's plants were seen on a Friday that was part of a 17 day 4,575 km (2843 miles) to the arid parts of South Australia and New South Wales.
On the Friday 2 of my sons, their parteners and myself went on the Wagara Lookout Hike in Wipena Pound, Flinders Rangers National Park.
Not all plants are labelled as they were mostly new to me.
