I have recently posted a couple of other photos of Pohutukawa trees in full and radiant bloom.
Have another!
Personally, I can’t get enough of the sight which epitomises summer for many New Zealanders.
Uplifting!

In Aotearoa/ New Zealand, it’s heating up! The buds pictured above will become the brilliant red flowers of the Pohutukawa ( the “NZ Christmas Tree”) shown below.
The earlier the blooms come, the better the summer, supposedly.
Can’t wait!

I have posted before with images of the above ground roots systems of the Australian Moreton Bay Fig tree.This shot was actually taken in Brisbane on a recent trip there.
The patterns of the roots are dramatic; their tightly packed vertical connections are very photogenic I think!
