          No not very obvious. At present the area is in full bloom with heath leptospermom which has a nice perfume and might mask some of the not so fragrant ones. Posted 6 years ago

            Thanks for entertaining my questions! :)

            This is a typical spring wildflower in your area?             Posted 6 years ago
