It looks nothing like a flower!

This image was captured by Landsat 8, and shows a band ratio that highlights different minerals and rock types.
The psychedelic colors are not what you would see with the naked eye, but they help geologists identify different types of rocks and minerals.
What is the name of this highest peak in this image?

This one is exactly what it looks like. There's a lovely ||macadamia snack pack|| named after it. 😋
