Needless to say I was overjoyed to find Bob Jago unfolding his tea table for a pre walk cuppa. We were soon joined by Coralie Stuart and Anne Mohun. Anne and I had both come from a Treeforce planting event that morning, so we felt very intrepid to make the extra mission to a SGAP event all afternoon. In no time at all we four were huddled under a small interpretive shelter chatting, and playing "how many trees can Bob name while sitting down over smoko". The rain abated, and we were off. At the carpark I was interested in a striking prodigious orange fig with an attractive leaf and undulate leaf margin. Bob informed me this was the Ficus virgata, var. virgata . Trip trapping over the bridge, we saw the incredibly dainty Maesa haplobotrys , displaying fruit and flowers at all stages. Very attractive. The waters below were speckled with bright Syzygium luehmannii fruit. Up the hill, and water was playing across the path. Bob demonstrated the Rhodamnia spongiosa , with its incredibly pronounced three veined leaf. Myrtaceae are not particularly known for their three veined leaf structure, and I mused about whether many of the FNQ Lauraceae displayed this structural diagnostic.
