dianella cerulea (in italiano dato che il dittongo latino ae =e Explanation: These very pretty little blue dainty dangling flowers are Dianella caerulea (Blue Flax Lily) a very common native in my part of the world and a delight to photograph as the morning or afternoon light has a great effect on them. They can be a difficult subject to shoot though due to the habitat in which they grow and that they flower randomly along the stem, many times with a relatively big gap between flowers. Finding one with a lot of flowers blooming at the same time is a rarity |
