See below link on Western Australian wildflower season, the country areas north of Perth generally start before the country areas south of Perth so is generally best to start north before heading south if you are a flower follower, see;

We hope to drive up from Perth to Paynes Find area next week and then follow the blooms for a couple of weeks. Havent realy had a chance to see them again since 1992. They wowed us then and we had limited travelling time so did not get to go to a lot of places. Mainly around Mullewa then.
We were planning heading off this weekend.
Last Friday got some grindings in my eye while at work. (no idea how as I wear safety glasses all the time) Had four little bits removed on Monday last, but one microscopic bit is still there and rusting away. Eye is very much better, but got another check up on Monday next. Might hopefully then get away on Tuesday.
See if we can be Wowed more than last time. Regards Mike and Ellie

No worries Barb & Daz, would love to be Sue, Mike and Ellie, but we can't get away at the moment unfortunately so hopefully another year, but definitely on our must do list in the future.
Best wishes, Vic
Edit: Here is the link for the Granite Trail Loop that looks interesting, it also takes in Andrews local town of Mukinbudin and I posted it there also, see;
