Swainsona formosa
Sturt's desert pea
📍Chichester region, Pilbara August '23
A prostrate annual / short lived perennial growing up to 0.2 m high and 3 m wide. Flowering from June to October with very atypical flowers as they don't resemble the typical pea flower. The plant has a wide distribution covering all mainland states in Australia except for Victoria.
Quite a famous Australian plant.
