The first display case showed the various colours of Eucalyptus leucoxylon, which grows throughout the southern areas of Victoria and South Australia |
| |||
| E leucoxylon was the first piece I made back in 1995. I was lucky to find some pieces of yellow bark for the display. I also included some imitation bark I had made using silk fusion. The red leucoxylon is sitting on a ceramic mount made by Carol Kenchington of Canberra |
| |||
| The next display case had Mugga Ironbark (E sideroxylon), Bottlebrush (Callistemon viminalis) and Queensland Silver Wattle (Acacia podalyriifolia), taking us up the east coast through NSW and Qld |  | |||
| The Callistemon was a minor triumph - I've been working on refining my construction techniques over the last 10 years and this attempt was nearly right. |  | |||
| The pale wattle is A victoriae, which I found around Alice Springs, flowering in September. The yellow wattle is A stipuligera which I found across the Barkly. Delicate white flowered E eucentrica is a local around Alice Springs |  | |||
| It is really hard to get a good photograph through a glass case - you can see the reflection of the information panels hanging above. |  | |||
