  1. My trusty ID app tells me this is a #MagnoliaStellata, sometimes known as the star #magnolia. Pics taken last week.

    The overall tree itself looked tired with leaves that mimic drought stricken conditions. However, I’m learning this season, many appear this way. And I believe it’s sometimes their inherent appearance (some species) during their late blooming phase, I think. Happy to be corrected, as this is based on observation only.

    Nevertheless, these flowers present bright as a button and quite exquisite, for mine!

    #Magnolia is a large genus of about 210 to 340 flowering plant species in the subfamily Magnolioideae of the family Magnoliaceae. It is named after the French botanist Pierre Magnol.

  2. A little bit of #greece 🇬🇷 painted by #katerin (created 2023), on a novelty shop wall near a little sitting area.

    A huge #Greek community in these parts of #Melbs.

    It’s cute, reminds me of my time in #crete many moons ago!

    And the catsss! 🐈🐈‍⬛

    Bless!

  3. These pics were taken on a road trip to #Centralvictoria, specifically #Colbinabbin, late December last year.

    These magic scenes are just one collection of many throughout our State (and beyond), which have been affectionately dubbed #siloart.

    This collection I believe is known as ‘THE COLBINABBIN FARMERS' PICNIC’, which depicts the locals of the district coming together back in the day, for an annual chance to relax and unwind!

    I marvelled at these for some time. And must admit, was taken back to a different time to those we experience today.

    The quality was superb and scale of these things; epic.

  4. It is a #ViburnumTinus, the laurustinus, laurustine or laurestine… sounds akin to a mouthwash huh (Oz audience will understand!)??

    They’re in early bloom and there were half a dozen healthy looking specimens growing in this front yard in #Mckinnon #Austrlia, so I expect these to be in full bloom in the next week or so.

    Delicate, small and pretty looking flowers. Just gorgeous.

  5. #BougainvilleaGlabra, or #paperflower are STILL flowering away throughout many suburbs here in #melbourne #Australia.

    I’ve seen this one blooming for months now. It’s located on a busy road and gets it’s fair share of appreciative observers, I guarantee it!

    The flowers on #bougainvillea are about 0.5 cm in diameter (the pink petal-like structures are not petals, but they’re known as ‘bracts’.

    See pic 4, which is from another tree, featured previously, for a close up detail of the flower and bracts.

  6. Im alittle conflicted by this paint job.

    I see it regularly and don’t know if I love it. Or just in ‘like’ 😁

  11. I’ve been driving past these #Petunias for weeks and found myself in #southbank #melbourne (near #crowncasino) the other day.

    They’re in masses in a formal garden bed just shining their love to the world!

    I love them.

    They come in so many colours and they pop in the summer warmth and sunlight.

    Gorgeous!!
