"The Mulla Mulla flower is one of the most common and recognisable flowers from the Kalgoorlie region. Ptilotus is from the Greek, ptilon, meaning down or feathers, a reference to the appearance of the flowers. Exaltatus meaning tall, referring to the flower spikes. They are usually herbaceous perennials with flowers in dense, brightly-coloured conicalheads. There are about 100 species in the genus Ptilotus, all but one occurring only in Australia.”
