This plant is one that flowers in December - January during our hot season. This particular photo is of many plants growing together and is not usually seen with as many flowers at once. A previous year had burnt the area and sponsored new plant growth. The seeds have a hard casing broken by fire. The plants have a life span and will die out.The flowers are buzz pollinated possibly by a native or honey bee. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buzz_pollination The stems of these plants are covered with glandular hairs which secrete a sticky substance which catches insects and digests them. However, it has its own little bug on it which runs around the plant without getting stuck and cleans out the old insect carcasses and nourishes itself by eating prey caught by the plants.
