Wildflowers Of The Stirling Range, Alexander S. George
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
TWO hundred miles south-east of Perth, the Stirling Range rises abruptly from the surrounding plain. About forty miles long, it is a line of semi-isolated hills, rather than a continuous block.
