A shallow creek running through the deep bush, in #Blackwood #Victoria #Australia on this fine Spring day.
Ferns and #gumtrees adorned this space for hundreds of square kilometres… thriving in their natural habitat.
Earlier, #kookaburras were heard ringing out amongst the tree tops.
Blue Wrens flitted throughout the trees.
And no other person was around, for miles.
This is kinda Heaven on Earth!
Sound up!!

#Blackwood, #Victoria is home to these gorgeous orange flowering native shrubs.
Found it tough to identify these, therefore if anyone knows what they are, please enlighten us!
They were in abundance… we’re in late Spring here.
The backdrop of gorgeous gums completed the scene.
Just gorgeous!

#Roses have come out to play, here in #Melb.
They’re full, radiant and lush. Bursting with colour and that fresh distinct #rose aroma.
They’re exquisite! 🌹

#Mckinnon, #Australia is home to this beautiful #WisteriainSensis, commonly known as the Chinese wisteria.
It drapes beautifully over a rear fence, backing onto a public reserve.
Gorgeous, huh?!

Just look at these awesome #Rhododendron… pink as anything and oh so delicate, elegant in appearance.
I’ve seen many in white, too!
Most species are native to eastern Asia and the Himalayan region, but smaller numbers occur elsewhere in Asia, and in North America, Europe and Australia.
Fun fact; there exists, 1,024 different species of Rhododendron 😳🙌

What a lovely display this morning, here in #Mckinnon, #Australia!
This magnificent #WisteriainSensis, commonly known as the Chinese wisteria, is a species of flowering plant in the pea family, native to China.
I’m in Love with these 🙏💜💜

Another suburban #gumtree, featuring its unique trunk patterns, akin to typical army fatigues.
The different colour of bark patches are in fact varying layers that have aged over the months. The lighter shades, obvs, are the newer layers.
This beauty is at least 60 foot tall and has most likely been around for longer than most of us, even though it’s a relatively mid-aged tree, I’d suggest.
Many #gums live in excess of 200 years, I read with interest!
You should see these monumental trees in a bush setting. In numbers, they are breathtaking.

Before and After…
The first photo was snapped a month ago.
The second pic was taken prior to sunset the other night. This tree has just commenced blooming.
I plan on keeping an eye on this one and update you with its blooming evolution.
What a beautiful transformation… a gorgeous work in progress.

The trusty flora ID App tells me these leaves belong to an #AmericanSweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), which is native to warm temperate areas of eastern North America and tropical montane regions of Mexico and Central America.
Sweetgums are recognizable by the combination of its five-pointed star-shaped leaves (similar to maple leaves) and its hard, spiked fruits.
This tree is almost bare, however a handful of beautiful leaves still remain. Notice how the setting sun accentuates the rich network of veins throughout each leaf structure?
And their colours are oh so gorgeous, too!

I took the first picture one month ago, ahead of this beauty blooming.
The remainder are pictures from now, late afternoon today!
I find it astounding how such flowering bloom can and does, grow in such a short time and with so much beauty and grace.
This is a #peach. For years I believed it to be cherry. So today, I learned something new about this gorgeous specimen!
(I’ve always noticed this tree but never had the opportunity to check for fruit, nor verified it’s identity). Time to remedy that, this year!!
I love this tree. #stunning.

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

Check out this #Freesia. Have only spotted a couple and managed to stop to snap this one during my working day.
They are native to the eastern side of southern Africa, from Kenya south to South Africa.
They have fragrant funnel-shaped flowers, and these were sweet with a perfumed aroma.
They come in many colours of the rainbow, including a variety of shades (mixes).

A huge #Acacia aka #wattle pre sunrise this morning.
How glorious is that full bloom? A sea of yellow, wow!
Cold last night, car was iced, a low of 1c (34F) but these, like many here in Melbs are hardy and resilient to frost.

This bicoloured #daffodil is beautiful.
Simple, sweet and cheery.
Early blooming, as with many flora of late here in Melbs, but only a couple more weeks until #spring propper… and more of same. I am sure of it!

Isn’t this bloom just delicious?
Well, hopefully they signal delish fruit to come… as my ID app tells me this is #peach (Prunus persica).
It is a deciduous tree, apparently first domesticated in Zhejiang province of Eastern China.
It will (hopefully!) produce edible juicy peaches (the glossy-skinned, non-fuzzy varieties)… the birds are going to have a ball with this one, when the time comes!

A lush bush of what I think is a spreading #phlox displaying nicely in #Mckinnon, #Australia this cool and crisp morning (circa 10 degrees Celsius).
Not sure I’ve seen these before in all honesty.
Just lovely!

#PrunusCerasifera is a species of plum known by the common names cherry plum and myrobalan plum.
It is native to Southeast Europe and Western Asia and is naturalised in the British Isles.
Also naturalized in parts of SE Australia where it is considered to be a mildly invasive weed of bushland near urban centers.
Weed or not, I love it!

#NarcissusTazetta, #daffodil or #paperwhite are blooming profusely here in #Gardenvale #Australia. So apt is this suburb name, too!

Perfect conditions of late, for early spring blooms, such as these and much much more!

These flowers, from a #CamelliaOleifera are in abundance here in #brightonEast #Australia.
Just look at the inflorescent blooms of this tree in the front yard of this place!!
The hair-like filaments and yellow anthers, for mine, are something else.

Surprisingly, we’re seeing Agapanthus (these I believe are #AgapanthusAfricanus) blooming in Melbs, here and there.
They’re normally out and about in abundance throughout mid Spring to early Summer, but these few captured yesterday in #brightonEast #Australia, appeared to be new blooms.
Strange timing, however gorgeous all the same.

You’re viewing #AloeArborescens, the krantz aloe or candelabra aloe, a species of flowering succulent perennial plant and a genus which shares with the well known and studied Aloe vera.
Aloe arborescens has succulent green leaves, large vibrantly-colored flowers, winter blooming, and attraction birds, bees, and butterflies.
#AloeVera is derived from the plant’s leaves and has many cosmetic and health benefits.
An amazing plant, and the flowers are just divine!

#BrightonEast #Melbourne #Australia is home to this grand #gumtree!
So richly #Australian and native to this continent.
First two pictures are of the same tree.
3rd and 4th are of other tree foliage (#eucalyptus leaves) that are typical of #gums, given the tall one tops out at around 60 foot high (estimated).
Taken yesterday evening, pre-sunset.

And here I thought #autumn was done and dusted here in #Melbs!
Have noticed a distinct change in transformational timing of some species of #flora this year.
We’re in early #winter now.
Some leaves turned and fell early, yet others late. Some flowers e.g. hydrangea made a small comeback with the onset of warmer weather early to mid-autumn (usually flower throughout summer).
It has been an enlightening period in this regard, some may say strange times indeed!
Anyways, this wax tree or sumac is living its best life, displaying its gorgeousness no matter the season!

#brightonEast #Australia is home to this gorgeous and healthy looking #azalea.
Simply cannot believe how many I’m seeing blossoming in the cooler, wet weather of late.
And that patterning, which is synonymous with these flowers, no matter their colour.

#Camellia’s are blooming everywhere in #melbourne!
This is a beauty, in #Gardenvale #Australia.
Did you know? 🤔
The camellia has a long history of cultivation in Japan for practical rather than decorative reasons.
The leaves are used to make tea while the seeds or nuts are used to make tea seed oil, which is used for lighting, lubrication, cooking and cosmetic purposes.
Tea oil has a higher calorific content than any other edible oil available naturally in Japan.

Such a healthy looking #TecomaCapensis, aka the Cape honeysuckle; its home is in Southern Africa.
I’ve seen these flowering at various times throughout this year already… but not like this. This one is oh-so healthy.
Just check out the shiny, modest-sized leaves… deep green in appearance.
This beautiful specimen is well hydrated, despite this flowering cycle ending shortly.

Throughout Melbs right now, #azelea’s are out in bloom and they’re everywhere!
They produce such gorgeous flowers… so many different varieties and colours. And their patterning is something else.
A truly special and visually pleasing plant.
Did you know? 🤔
Most azaleas are poisonous.
They contain #Grayanotoxins, which are a group of closely related neurotoxins.
Grayanotoxins are produced by #Rhododendron species and other plants in the family #Ericaceae.

I have shared this #bougainvillea before… and it is still flowering strong.

#PlumbagoEuropaea, aka the #commonleadwort, is a plant found in the Mediterranean Basin and Central Asia.
It’s also 💜-ing #melbourne at the moment!!
It’s everywhere and blooming with vigour.
This one is a wild-child… growing in a carpark and very happy indeed. It has spread to around 1.7 metres tall and about 5 metres wide.
Most of its blooms are full, the petals are shaped and defined with a single indentation along the length of each petal, from the ovary (centre), extending out the to the rounded petal edge.
The violet colour is consistent and gorgeous.
#Plumbago here has been a real pleasure this summer (and autumn!).

#LavandulaDentata, the fringed lavender or French #lavender, is a species of flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean, the Atlantic islands and the Arabian peninsula.
This lot (loads of it!!) is growing in the front garden of a commercial property in #Gardenvale #Australia.
I smelt the pungent aroma at least 6 foot away. Almost gave me a headache haha. It was super strong.
Lovely looking, hey??! 👀

A little research has established this is grandiflora, a hybrid species of flowering plant in the honeysuckle family Caprifoliaceae.
Made up of #Linnaea (aka #abelia cross with #grandiflora.
Lovely soft colours. And leaves that are plump and healthy.
These flowers were super fragrant. As in noticeable from a couple of feet away. These flowers look as if they’re produced in clusters, mainly white, tinged pink, bell-shaped, to 2 cm long.
Unlike most flowering shrubs in this suburban (cultivated / managed) setting, the species blooms from late summer to well into the autumn.
This ‘find’ was pleasing, even in the rain!

Altext: Lovely soft colours, that these small flowers display. And leaves that are green, plump and healthy. The bush itself is about 2 metres wide by 1.8 metres tall, had been well trimmed and shaped last year I suspect, growing behind a white picket fence. Recent rain shows the leaves and flowers have droplets of water. These flowers were super fragrant… very noticeable from a couple of feet away. These flowers look as if they’re produced in clusters, mainly white, tinged pink, bell-shaped, to 2 cm long. They look to me like miniature lilies as they have gorgeous white filaments and anthers.

The #Plumbago, also known as the #commonleadwort, is a plant in the genus Plumbago found in the Mediterranean and Central Asia.
This post is dedicated to @LifeTimeCooking who I know loves these things!
Plumbago I read with interest, is a rich source of #flavonoid. This means they contain powerful antioxidants with anti-inflammatory and immune system benefits.
So it seems these flowers are edible and somewhat healthy if used for decorative purposes on a plate!

Well, to say I fell in love the moment I set my eyes on this booming, bright #Bougainvillea is an understatement!
It’s the most magnificent one I’ve seen all #summer… and just look at the saturated growth of flowers. And the shades of pinks and what appears red shades throughout this beauty.
Not sure I’ve ever seen one so magnificent!

#Lagerstroemia (also crepe myrtle, or crepeflower) is native to the Indian Subcontinent and also to Southeast Asia, China, Korea and Japan.
I believe my ID app has identified this correctly. I couldn’t get close to this one as it was set back in the front garden of its home in #Gardenvale #Australia.
But from afar it caught my eye and it certainly has the splendour fitting to share with the good folk of #mastodon!

This gorgeous #bougainvillea has been featured about 5 or 6 weeks ago and it’s as glorious today as it was back then.
It’s located in #Gardenvale #Australia.
It is a well watered and tended to plant, I suspect!
The pink / red (purple?) petals are vibrant and it’s white stigma makes this flower a delight.
Just beautiful!

Snap and upload. No filter (I never use!) - the vibrant reds of this was amazing!
It is a Celosia argentea, commonly known as the #plumedcockscomb and is of tropical origin from India and Nepal.
The plant is known for its very bright colors. Not surprising!!
These are growing in abundance near #governmenthouse in #melbourne, #Australia with their #marigold buddies.
The red flowering growth presents as erect ‘feather like’ portions that almost look fluorescent in the sunshine.
Yes, they looked this glorious in real life.
