Colours

While in this part of the world, we don't really experience the change of colours that marks the new seasons among deciduous trees, we do have many opportunities to find vibrant textures and colours through sunlit canopies. We just need to get closer to see it, that's all!

Cupaniopsis

The Tuckeroo as it is known colloquially can develop into a large dense shade tree, but it's mostly found in exposed situations on the beach front where the wind burns it constantly keeping it neatly trimmed.

It's not often one gets to see the new growth in this state, completely pruned by the elements, or perhaps it's just not often one goes looking.

Palms

Well when you've only got a few metres between your property boundary and your building, what else can you plant?

Pigface revisited.

Here's my old favourite again; The pigface. With the light behind it it takes on an almost ethereal glow. Ahhh I love rubbish like this!

Macaranga

The macaranga was not named after a latin dance craze, it is however, a rainforest primary species, which thrives on the edge of any forest or in pockets of light. It drops lots of debris, leaves, flowers and seeds, and has a relatively short lifespan, allowing stronger plants to grow up in it's shadow, feeding on the mulch it creates.
