The coastal woodland thicket is buzzing with the lives of plants and animals. This photograph depicts the rich diversity of flora at secluded Cudmirrah Nature Reserve which is threatened by bitou bush invasion. Unusual herbs and orchids hide behind long gone Banksia elders that lie before them enriching the soil and microbial community while paving the way for future generations. Moss carpets the line of vision through tangles of vines and shrubs toward the unknown. This secret garden may be lost if we are not mindful of the hidden dangers such as weed invasion.
