Leptospermum in Flower

Post by Watto »

I have had this tree for quite a few years now and this year was one of the best for flowering so I thought I'd share.
Lost the label years ago but it doesn't matter to me, just happy its powering along. Its plant in this hand made Viveann pot and I think they are a good combination together.

Hi Watto , nice little tea tree you have there . I did play with a few natives quite some time ago , but never really got a handle on them .
Most are still in planter bags and in need of some serious styling , another job for alpineart . Unfortunately he doesn't want to do too much , another case of cant be stuffed .
This just might re-align my thinking . .

Cheers Ian

Great little tree! I'm starting to enjoy and appreciate flowering bonsai a lot more these days. I like how from a distance (zoomed out on my phone) the flowers look like snow capping the canopy.

Thanks for sharing!

What a cutie! Love how white those flowers are against the green. Nice bark too.
