Flower of the Day - Crimson Bottlebrush
Message - Sweetness of Life
Bottlebrush or Callistemon are an Australian native plant. The colourful crimson filaments attract pollinators such as birds and insects. Interestingly, these silky gold tipped filaments are not petals, but stamens. Australian plants have adapted to our often dry climate, and generally don't have large petals that would dehydrate quickly.
