Harlequin mistletoe

Softer than Andrex, scented and medicated too

Spinifex grass ring. This is showing a similar pattern that heathers in their mature and degenerate phase of the life cycle display. As the nutrients at the centre of the plant are exhausted the plant grows out in a ring pattern. Scottish heather/grouse moors are burnt in a patchwork fashion to regenerate the heather but still provide a habitat for the grouse. Sound familiar?
