Re: Post Your Winter Flower
Bougies galore here, along with an orchid bought in Melbourne, and the odd nodding violet.

Re: Post Your Winter Flower
Well my Chinese Elm and my maples think it's spring as they all start to bud out now, but here's my chojubai in flower at the moment.

We tend to be later than other capitals...
My ume, ground-grown from a cutting. It has a nice base, and flowers reliably, but branches reshoot erratically, and ramification is very hard won.

Re: Post Your Winter Flower
A few more natives showing their winter flowers
Banksia ericifolia 'little eric'
Massive flowers in comparison to the leaves, but a great choice for the foliage size. ------------------------------
Thryptomene saxicola
Its a great piece of material to use as bonsai. Beautiful tiny flowers like hanging bells, and lovely bark. ------------------------------
Phebalium squamulosum
Phebaliums are prolific in their flowering as Spring approaches, and soon they will be fully covered in flowers, and are a great choice for a beginner (just don't choose the ones with a spindly thin trunk. Squamulosum usually develops a very decent trunk, and fairly soon)
