| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
I have no idea what this flower is but I was attracted to its unusual colour.
It was growing in the Government Gardens at the Port Arthur Historic Site. The gardens were originally established in the late 1830's as an outdoor leisure space for the civil and military officials at Port Arthur, and survived until well after the closure of the settlement in 1877.

Hi JT
Not a wild species so it shouldn't really be on TN - the Guidelines ask you to keep to natural species. I can however tell you it is Scabiosa atropurpurea 'Chile Black'
