X is for Xanthorrhoea

Commonly known as a Grass Tree but in this Alphabet Challenge x’s are hard to come by. In my younger days they were called Black Boys but that is now considered offensive.
As Covid-19 restrictions are gradually being eased it is great to be able to catch up with friends and go and take photos. We do really well with the Social Distancing until we slip into the old habit of ‘chimping’ our photos and sharing our results. Which in laymans terms means looking at the photo on the back of the camera and comparing our shots. Which means you have to get closer than 1.5m. Ahh, the things we took for granted.
I’ve chosen one image for the Alphabet Challenge and added the others into a slideshow because it was such an interesting plant to photograph (if you like abstract images). This one wasn’t flowering otherwise there’d be a stack more photos!.
I’ll share some other photos from Maranoa Gardens, where I found this beauty, in another post.
