Our Guest speaker was Norm Palazzi who gave a very informative talk on his trip to Western Australia to look at the wild flowers from the Kimberleys to Perth.
Norm showed us many photos of the different plants and explained that each plant adapted to the local conditions to survive.
Also the local fauna had adapted not to eat the plants as some were very poisonous.
Thank you Norm for sharing with us your knowledge on this subject, it was appreciated by all.
