************
The following two lovely trees
are in our neighbourhood.
The first photo is of a Poinciana tree.
*E Delonix regia
A native of Madagascar where unfortunately it is endangered.
It is however planted all over the world
and very popular here in this part of Qld. where you see
them everywhere at this time of year.

Flowering Gum Tree
#N Corymbia ficifolia is
one of the most commonly planted
ornamental
trees planted
in the broader eucalyptus family.

It is native to a small area in Western Australia and
flowers can be any colour from pale cream through
pinks, red, orange and deep crimson.

These are also planted throughout this suburb.

The tally is the same.
66 seedlings in black pots.
6 in the garden.
2 in large pots = 74
