Pohutukawa

This one is just outside the living room. It usually full in flower by Christmas, but it is little late this summer. Here is another angle and link to wider shot.

A pretty and dainty flower to have such a long name. Nice shot.

Lachezar said...

Truly beautiful! Congratulations, I guess it must feel great to have them close by!

Cheers

Ben said...

Thank you every one.

I like your shot better, Lachezar. (The Pohutukawa is best summer flowering tree in NZ, so I couldn't resist posting my own.)

This is a great pic! I just love the color! Happy New Year from Houston Daily Photo!

Ben said...

Thanks Candice & Megan.

I love this horticultural firework and the wide-angle shot is exquisite, too. Or is it a bottle-brush? Whatever - it's playing my song!

Thanks for comment, Phlegmfatale.
The bottle blush is another kind and the flower is almost all gone. Jon at Melbourne took excellent bottle blush flower last year,
