Banksia
Banksias are a defining feature of the Australian landscape, with nearly all known species found nowhere else on Earth. Named after botanist Sir Joseph Banks, who first documented them in 1770, these remarkable plants are recognised for their cylindrical flower spikes and sculptural seed cones. From low, spreading shrubs to towering trees, banksias capture both the resilience and intricate beauty of Australia’s native flora.
Eucalyptus
Eucalypts stand as another enduring symbol of Australia. The name, derived from the Greek eu (well) and kalyptos(covered), was first given by French botanist Charles Louis L’Héritier de Brutelle in 1788. Around 900 species are now recognised, spanning three genera - Eucalyptus, Corymbia, and Angophora - each reflecting the diversity and adaptability that define Australia’s wild landscapes.
Australian Native Plants
Australia’s flora is extraordinary in its diversity and form. Beyond banksias and eucalypts, countless native species reveal striking flowers, sculptural seed pods, and elegant foliage. This collection features some of my favourite photographs of Western Australian plants—each a small glimpse into the richness and individuality of Australia’s wild landscapes.
Gum Leaves
Eucalyptus leaves reveal an astonishing variety of colour, form, and texture—no two are ever alike. This series is dedicated to leaves gathered on my walks and photographed on a light pad, highlighting their delicate structure and the subtle beauty found in everyday details of the Australian bush.
