" Vanilla lily

Meaning: Ambassador of love
Sowerbaea juncea | Eastern Australia

Perennial with edible roots found in eucalyptus forests, woodlands, heaths, and sub-alpine meadows. Grass-like leaves have a strong scent of vanilla. Flowers are pink-lilac to white, papery, with sweet vanilla perfume. Resprouts after fire. "
