Not Bushmansfriend - nice symmetry and soft velvety leaves.
Canterbury had a major earthquake this weekend. Christchurch suffered very badly, although Ashburton has been very fortunate to escape relatively unscathed.
24km run today in warm nor-westery conditions along the Ashburton Rivertrack and back around Lake Hood. Nice to start a run in daylight for a change.
I had always thought the above plant was called Bushmansfriend ( rangiora ) for its utility as toilet paper when you get caught short in the bush but apparently this is not so. Until I hear otherwise I shall call it runners friend instead.
