Callistemon in Argentina!

Post by Steven »

:gday:
While reading some old entries in the Travelogues of Walter Pall, I stumbled across the following nice Callistemon that WP photographed in the Japanese Garden of Buenos Aires City.

Apparently it is part of the collection of Wu (Jose) who's website can be found here http://www.bonsaiwu.com.ar/

While checking out Wu's website I found another Callistemon he is growing.

Both are pretty good examples of natural looking Callistemon that I though were worthy of sharing :tu:

Regards,
Steven
