Abstract
As creative bioregional research, 'poetic enquiry' involves dialogue between the sciences and arts, between historical fact and immediate experience. Immersed in the Western Australian context, I wrote poetry about the endemic flora of the state. These six poems narrate the aesthetic features of plants and their diverse narratives, including my own experiential response. The portfolio weaves together multiple ways of knowing the natural world and points to the possibility of creative synergy between knowledge forms.
