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.

A classic orange Campsis grandiflora, aka the #Chinesetrumpetvine spotted in the back of a suburban alley way in #StkildaEast yesterday. #Australia.

It is a fast-growing creeper with large, orange, trumpet-shaped flowers. It can grow to a height of 10 meters apparently. A native of East Asia.

I think these flowers appear and die off relatively quick. Many were on their way out however there were new buds forming, ready to burst open!

Corymbia ficifolia is commonly known as the #redfloweringgum.

It is a species of small tree that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

This one was teeming with #bees and shining brightly in the evening sun during a catch-up coffee with a good friend in #StkildaEast #Australia.

We all scoffed lamingtons, which are a delight to eat on this #AustraliaDay.

Very #Australiana!
