Calectasia keigheryi

Calectasia keigheryi, commonly known as blue tinsel lily, is a plant in the family Dasypogonaceae growing as an erect, rhizomatous, perennial herb.

The upper part of the petals spread outwards to form a blue, papery star-like pattern fading to white or occasionally red with age.

[2] The specific epithet (keigheryi) "honours botanist Greg Keighery who has made extensive contributions to the taxonomy, biology and conservation of the flora of Western Australia, including Calectasia''.

[1] This species of blue tinsel lily is uncommon and known in only three locations in the Fitzgerald River National Park in the Esperance Plains biogeographic region of south-west Western Australia.

[1] Calectasia keigheryi is classified "Priority Two" by the Western Australian government Department of Parks and Wildlife[3] meaning that is poorly known and from one or a few locations.
