132/366 Fiji Fire and Little Bridget

waiting to be planted. Have decided to buy an augur to dig the holes as the ground is really rocky.

Fiji Fire... orange/red flowers in summer attract native birds to feed.
Little Bridget... tough form of NZ Christmas Bush, reddish new growth and orange/red flowers.
Metrosideros is a genus of approximately 60 trees, shrubs, and vines mostly found in the Pacific region in the family Myrtaceae. Most of the tree forms are small, but some are exceptionally large, the New Zealand species in particular. The name derives from the Ancient Greek metra or "heartwood" and sideron or "iron".
