Wongan Tourism

12th  July with approx 50mm of rain, an awesome amount after a very dry, freezing cold spell. Hakea’s flowering in some areas.

We have had some beautiful rain over the weekend May 23 2010 and more due this week so hope that will be the start to some orchids flowering like the Winter Spider Orchid, mayby some Bunny Orchids and Greenhoods, hope to get out over the next week or two to have a look around. Keep you posted and best of luck to all the farmers madly seeding.

Wildflowers season peaks in September in Wongan Hills with many species flowering from July through to December. Our wildflowers depends on the season to what flowers. We have had great falls of rain now and we are expecting a great display of flowers this season.

For all your up to date information of wildflowers call to the Wongan Hills Visitor Centre. Ask our friendly volunteers and they may be able to organize someone to show you to the best spots.
