Red Flowering Gum Tree

G's red flowering gum is about to turn one year old and also flowering ... it's amazing!




When you take a close look it's fascinating how the little caps on the flower buds pop off and the flowers start to unfold and emerge, a bit like a butterfly.The tree is covered in flower buds and has done really well. Two previous trees failed in the back yard so the front is obviously the way to go.
