Lovely tall, mature #Gumtree’s (their trunks and gorgeous patterning feature in this post) grow proud here in a public reserve here in #oakleighsouth #Australia.
There’s no doubting where the inspiration from army fatigues came from. Mother Nature herself!!

For such a small tree, this #redflowergum (pictured 5 mins ago) in #oakleighsouth #Australia has some impressive bloom.
It’s endemic to the SW of Western Australia. Though is one of the most commonly planted ornamental eucalypts in warmer regions throughout Oz!
#Bees were having a ball too!

#Proteacynaroides, also called the #kingprotea, is a distinctive member of Protea, having, apparently… the largest flower head in the genus.
The species is widely distributed in the southwestern and southern parts of South Africa.
This one was growing in abundance in #OakleighSouth #Australia on a busy road and Ive been observing it from a far for a week now.
It’s now perfect for a glorious photograph or two. So I didn’t waste this opportunity to share this beauty.

Meet another #Hibiscusrosasinen aka #Hawaiianhibiscus… a gorgeous pink this time.
Just check out the anatomy of this gorgeous thing.
Abundant with flowers and extremely happy in the recent heat we’ve experienced in #melbourne of late!

Another #hedge of some sort - there was conjecture with another hedge in the previous couple of day’s post.
Anyhow, this one is relatively unkempt and similar / same as that previously featured.

Yellow #kangaroopaw with touch of red fading through the soft, velvet-like flower coverage.
Very #Australian.
Exceptionally beautiful.

A colourful #japanesemaple is displaying proud in the #melbourne heat this evening. The shaded slight yellows merging with the red/brown is delightful.
Needs a watering and will receive respite in the form of shade in the next couple of hours. It has endured a run of hot-hot days of late.
These leaves appear a little heat affected I think, maybe due to dehydration too 🤔
Must put out a call to the rain-gods… or it’s human caretaker!

Two gorgeous #nerium #oleander on a nature strip in #OakleighSouth #Australia.
Both blooming well and smelling diving. I must say, the white was more pungent… even standing a metre away.
Just magnifico.

Are lilac coloured #roses common in your neck of the woods?
You don’t see many around here.
This was a treat for the visual senses!
