March flowering trees Western Australia

 Hi everyone, just a quick post from me today as I am getting ready for an Art market this weekend. 

I have always said that there is always something flowering in the Western Australian bush. And so today a share a few flowering trees from late February and early March. 

If you click on the links you can go to where I have blogged about them individually before - Clockwise from top left - Eucalyptus grandis - Flooded gum, Corymbia calophylla sub species "rosea" - Pink Marri Corymbia calophylla - Marri , Myrtaceae - lillypilly (in my garden - I make jam from them!), Casuarina - Sheoak, and Eucalyptus erythrocorys - red capped gum 

These red capped gums are stunning this time of year - such a bright burst of colour. The red caps fall off to reveal the flower. 

Interestingly the marri was previously classified as a Eucalyptus species but in 1995 was reclassified as Corymbia.

It is a busy busy week for me. Here are some of the eco-print works I am getting ready for the Art market this weekend. 

And a few of my cushions with my photography. Lots of flowers of course! 


That's it from me today. I hope you and yours are well. I continued to be devestated by the news coming out of the Ukraine. And pray for a resolution. 


Thank you so much for stopping by. I value your comments and look forward to hearing from you. I will try to visit your blogs in return. Have a wonderful week.

Red capped gum & Tree Street Art Safari

Hi everyone! Just realised it is Tuesday afternoon, and I haven't post for this week. I have been busy getting all my stuff together for the Tree Street Art Safari in Bunbury on this Saturday from 10am to 5pm. It is always a fabulous day. I will again be hosted at 13 Banksia Street, if you happen to be in Bunbury. I will be there with my eco-print and photographic products. 

So today, I will just post a couple of pics of the fabulous Red Capped Gum Eucalyptus erythrocorys - illyarrie - which is flowering brilliantly in our area right now. So bright! I love the way the flower emerges as the red caps pop off. 



I also blogged about them last year....also during a little blogging break.... hmmm... .Red Capped Gum

Stay safe, enjoy your week, and I will be back next week. 


Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you and yours are safe and well.

Red Capped Gum - Eucalyptus erythrocorys

Taking a small blogging break this week, but thought I would share a couple of pics of the Red capped Gum - Eucalyptus erythrocorys - other common names include illyarrie, and helmet nut gum - which is flowering in our area right now - though its native habitat is north of Perth on undulating limestony sites near Dongara, and also north of Kalbarri National Park where it grows as a mallee. The flower can be 7cm across and is quite spectacular and has red caps you can see in the photo below before it bursts open.
