Midyim

Austromyrtus dulcis
The midyim in the garden are flowering and I made a graphic background for our stall at Finders Keepers Market in a couple of weeks. I expect we will see lots of this edible berry growing on our trip to North Stradbroke Island later this week as it loves having its feet in sandy open forests where it forms a spreading understorey favoured by snakes. Pity it is the wrong time of year for the delicious gingery berries.

  1. Hello REbecca, congratulations on the grant. Hope the Wallum swamps don't disappear, and that your work will draw attention to why its ecosystems need to be protected.
    See you at the finders keepers markets.
