Lachnostachys eriobotrya Lambswool Endemic
As well as being quite spectacular, covered as it is in white fluffy flowers, this endemic shrub can be up to 2 even 3 metres tall. The flowers are so close to each other that it is difficult to see any structure but from a distance it has the effect of a roundish shrub covered in blobs of wool like the common name suggests.
It is mostly found north of Perth centred on Geraldton and near the coast extending not far inland.
