Red Flowering Gum

Posted by Helen (Melbourne, Australia) on 10 February 2008 in Plant & Nature.

Another beautiful floral display from Mum's garden. These Eucalyptus ficifolia trees have a range of coloured blossom. The bright red is my favourite. I have not adjusted colour so you can appreciate how striking the red is against the green foliage.

Constructive feedback is your greatest compliment; caring enough to bother saying something ... thanks for visiting!
