The season of adolescence or Bunuru is well underway – the days are still hot with temperatures in the mid-thirties, warm easterly winds and little or no rain. Bunuru is also the season of flowering gums, and the Marri trees (Corymbia calophylla) surrounding our tree hut are in full bloom now – a truly spectacular sight!
What a beautiful and delicate flower, amazing details!
Marri flowers are very beautiful, but there are so many now that it’s easy to forget there beauty – and importance.
How beautiful, Maurice! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Janet, you are welcome!
Beautiful shots of very unusual flowers, Maurice!
Thank you Dries – very unusual indeed, especially when they start developing those so-called ‘Honkey Nuts’ after flowering.
“Honkey Nuts”!? 😀
Please make a note to show us the Honkey Nuts when they’re there Maurice?
We certainly will Dries. There are so many around here we even use them for mulching!
