Scarlet Callistemon

In our front hedge, Spring flower in Queensland. Bottlebrushes (botanically belonging to the genus Callistemon) are among the most popular and colourful Australian native plants both in Australia and overseas. The native birds really love them. European botanists and collectors of the late 18th century showed considerable interest in the plants of the remote southern continent of Australia. Callistemon citrinus was among the plants collected by Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander in 1770 during the discovery of the east coast of Australia. By 1788, three species from the Sydney region, C.citrinus, C.linearis and C.salignus, were available to English horticulturists. anpsa.org.au/callis7.html 1/31 Scarlet and Timberwolf 12 Months in Colour

Scarlet Bottlebrush

In our front hedge. The Rainbow Lorikeets love this but they are too quick for me to capture them. Bottlebrushes (botanically belonging to the genus Callistemon) are among the most popular and colourful Australian native plants both in Australia and overseas. European botanists and collectors of the late 18th century showed considerable interest in the plants of the remote southern continent of Australia. Callistemon citrinus was among the plants collected by Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander in 1770 during the discovery of the east coast of Australia.
