Callistemon Citrinus 'Crimson'

Good 🌄 morning all.. bottlebrush now in full bloom, certainly worth the wait.

I’ve never had any luck with these, I’ve had a couple and I just don’t get on with them! That’s a stunner! ❤️

Morning Mark, it is ❤❤❤

Thanks, i think it just adores this weather and the hot spot it sits in. Plus the the attention it gets ❤ @dan5584 @pelly

Beautiful ❤️❣️❤️

Thanks Kerry. Noted you had Hot Pink in your garden, that variety is on my wishlist. Looking forward to seeing it in all its glory @kez001uk

@solly1961 I’m relying on Hot Pink to look great this year as I don’t think my red one will flower at all. A frost killed off the new growth and think I over-pruned 🙈

@kez001uk oh no, I'm sure your hot pink variety will deliver. Most stuff I've read says minimal pruning, whatever that means..

@solly1961 I do hope so 😛 that’s good to know, thank you. I’m a bit heavy handed with secateurs at the best if times 😂

Morning ☁️ All. My #colourpop for today has exploded out if its protective home. Have a fab day.

Morning Mark (again). What a stunning photo ....fascinating flowers aren't they. Enjoy your day 👋😯❤

Great capture 😍😍 #progress

Super photo Mark 😍

Nice photo! They are so beautiful and not just when they're blooming.

Brilliant detail ❤️ gorgeous photo ❤️

Thank you for those kind words @flof1952 @sherrisgarden @pelly @maldavis @kez001uk they are beautiful from bud to bloom.

Going to look fabulous 👍

You're very welcome 😀

Love this Mark 😍now added to Wishlist @solly1961

It is wonderful shona @sho47 . Im now looking for another one but different shade of pink, like Callistemon viminalis 'Hot Pink'

Flower buds shedding their protective cover, must love this weather. Can't wait for this to flower

Won’t be long now 😁

Last hour or so 🤔, dash of feathered red has started to appear. You might be right Kerry @kez001uk

@solly1961 my pink one has m one bud that’s just done the same so was an educated guess 😉😂

Can't resist a Bottlebrush #macro , detail in this everlasting bud deserves a look-see #bottlebrush. Unsure of variety but all will be revealed soon..

Great closeup! Love how soft the new growth feels 😜😂

Wow superb pic 👌👌

Yes Kerry, the tip has a velvety feel compared to the armour texture of surrounding sides.. thanks @kez001uk @Keely

Thanks Jason, took a bit of time to find the right bloom. And as with all Macro shots, I'm always amazed at what you see in the detail @Jasonsparkes1

Morning All 🌄 fancy a Bottlebrush.. a prolific flower i hear. Can't wait to see as they've been in bud for so long..

It won't be long by the looks of it ❤❤❤

Excited face🤗, hopefully Jane @pelly
