I think the earliest I see these in flower in Canberra is in late March or early April.

@MatthewFrawley this is by far the earliest I've found them here! Usually mid to late Feb when the first emerge.

Very interesting.

There are a few autumn flowering species that have started flowering very early this year. I think this might be quite an early season for the autumn flush.

@MattM everything seems to be a few weeks early, this year. Noticed it with the spring and summer flowers, too.
