wax_flowers

Geraldton waxflower (Chamelaucium uncinatum Schauer, Myrtaceae). This is a bee plant -- I have seen bees foraging on it in San Diego, but did not get a good picture with bees on them. This photo was taken on the dinner table of Kellogg Biological Station, MSU while at a Lilly Teaching Fellow retreat. April 18, 2003.
