I've set my self a challenge this year to try and learn more about plant identification. I was spured on today trying to figure out this one! I was reliably informed that it is 'bittercress' (cardamine hirsuta) so of course scurried off to double check this and learn what I could about it! #bushcraft #nature #wildflowers #wildfoods #foraging #flowers #plants #botany #wildernesslifestyle #outdoorsman #youtuber #knowyourplants #spring

#crownofthorns (Euphorbia milii) gets its common name from the sharp, brown thorns that line up the thick stems of this succulent plant.

Xanthostemon chrysanthus (Golden Penda) spotted in my neighbourhood. The species name is derived from the Ancient Greek words chrysos "golden" and "anthos" flower. #Brisbane #knowyourplants #GoldenPenda
