Tantalising

And so another week has passed and every day I have ventured down to check out this beautiful Waratah bloom.  It's now four weeks since I first posted a blip of this particular specimen and It's absolutely intriguing to see it unfold.  I wouldn't imagine there are too many flowers that take so long to reach their spectacular finale.  I can assure you, we probably have another couple of weeks before we can say that it's wearing its ball gown!!

Today it looked like a flame and I love the way the petals are unfolding in such a sculptural way.

For those of my blip buddies who have been following its progress, I'm making it easy for you to check back on the past three weeks.
