Spring is approaching and with it comes the beautiful woodland wildflower season. Woodlands have a rich understorey comprised of many forbs, lillies, grasses and even some spectacular orchids. After all the winter rain we received in the Mid Lachlan, it’s likely that a good flowering display is on the cards. As the weather warms up head out to TSR’s such as Badgery’s on the Reids Flat Road or a bit further afield is Crowther TSR on the Olympic Highway. Conimbla and Nangar National Parks have beautiful walks, or get along to an old cemetery such as Koorawatha, Canowindra or Toogong, and enjoy the diversity!
