Stylidium - animals and flora art in watercolour and ink at Art Gallery Australia - Buy and Sell Art Online

Stylidium (Trigger plants) are shown in three varieties; S. schoenoides, S. junceum and S. calcaratum.

"These beautiful plants have always fascinated me and I can never resist setting off the little trigger. When touched by an insect the trigger snaps across, showers pollen over the body of the inscet. The insect can then transfer to another flower which aids in the fertilization. There are over 130 species found in Western Australia."
