Callistemon Dig

Today I had the opportunity to dig a bottlebrush that the owner of a house needed removed. I really need to get back to work, these holidays are too much for me. Yesterday a Mugo Pine and today a bottlebrush - well two actually. Tomorrow I'm off to volunteer at the national collection in Canberra so that should stop me getting any more trees, and my darling will be pleased with that!
Anyway, here is todays haul. The larger one is "Little John" but I don't know what the other one is so if someone could help me that would be appreciated.

Good score Watto, isn't this what holidays are for?

The other could be 'Captain Cook' http://asgap.org.au/c-cook.html.

Thanks Matt. I have a Captain Cook up the back but the foliage looks a bit different, but I will have a look tomorrow and report back.
