The Wattle
Ever wondered why Australian sports teams always wear dresses in green and yellow?These colors don’t show up on the Australian flag or anything alike and I learned today where they come from ...
Actually the dresses are green and gold and the colors come from the Australian national flower, the wattle. The wattle is a bright yellow flower that comes in about 70 different kinds, some are small yellow balls with long or short leafs, some are rather cylindrical in shape.
