Firsttimeauditions Hannah

Fluffy red ... I call it like that!

   Il suo nome è in realtà "callistemon speciosus", ma a me piace chiamarlo piumetto rosso per i suoi rossi pennacchi che fioriscono alla sommità dei rami.
E' un arbusto di provenienza australiana appartenente alle mirtacee che, per la sua rusticità, può abbellire il nostro giardino in exchange for very little attention.


I bought it three years ago and then gave me a flower after another. In spring and summer flowers are plentiful but even in winter, when the garden is bare, his eyes brighten up red feathers with a touch of color ...

... As you describe this picture where the flowers are sprayed with snow
The picture "snow" shows us that the hardiness of this plant also bears very harsh temperatures.
As the temperature is more mild and bumble bees are busy on these soft flowers that, given the continuing coming and going, I think they are rich in nectar!

the fall of the petals appear on the stem of small spherical fruits, which give off an aroma similar to the touch all'eucalitpo.


Here they are: ...
