Remember photo 1 from 2013 of a grass plant Xanthorroea.The next photos taken a few days ago show how it has grown over the last 5 yrs.The flower stems are not as long but the plant has now 3 heads & each spear is nearly the same length.
The Rainbow Lorikeets were screeching at me while I took these photos.

Everything has grown since you saw the backyard but a few things have either died from old age or weather conditions.
Water restrictions will probably be introduced soon .

This is something unusual for me but very pretty. It sure seems to have grown fast.

The plant hasn't grown much taller over the past 5yrs ,just grew 2 more heads.These plants are natives which are slow growing ,survive bushfires & live to be hundreds of years old
