Spotted this beautiful flowers hanging from the tree above so vibrantly just as if they wear a pair of Earrings. Just thought that I could pluck them and gift it to my wife but then decided to let it be since they looked more beautiful up there.
Callistemon Citrinus -
Callistemon species have commonly been referred to as bottlebrushes because of their cylindrical, brush like flowers resembling a traditional bottle brush. They are mostly found in the more temperate regions of Australia, especially along the east coast and typically favour moist conditions so when planted in gardens thrive on regular watering. However, two species are found in Tasmania and several others in the south-west of Western Australia. At least some species are drought-resistant and some are used in ornamental landscaping elsewhere in the world.

Very different. I'm familiar with the Bottle Brush Flowers but these are spectacular. Might also have to do with the way you captured this gorgeous flower. :)

When I was younger and lived with my parents in California, we had a bottle brush plant in our back yard. Would that be the same?
