Bush Plum

The Bush Plum is an important food source for Aboriginal people throughout history. They are gathered still today when they are ripe. The Bush Plum story has been passed down through Bessie’s family for generations. Bessie tells this story in her paintings showing the growth patterns of the plants and the topography of the country.
