Red Waratah ~ Australian Flower Photography Print ~ Floral Wall Art by Nadia Culph
'Gulpilil's Stories of the Dreamtime tells a story explaining how the white waratah became red. In the story, a female wonga pigeon flew above the tree canopy looking for her lost mate. She was caught by a hawk but broke free, tearing her breast. She landed on a white waratah and her flowing blood stained it red.' - Michael J Connolly, Munda-gutta Kulliwari
