I had the chance to sample fallen dried leaves of Eucalyptus Eximia, the yellow bloodwood. Such spectacular bark!
Needless to say, I didn’t pass up the opportunity!
Apparently I did pass up the opportunity to take a picture of the entire tree, but here you have bark, trunk, leaves and immature fruit
And the result from the dyepot…
Just for your viewing pleasure–some more of the glorious native Australian plants at Wittunga Botanical Gardens–
These are banksias at their splendid best.

hmmm, not the most exciting ….. interesting though, seeing how much it varies even in the home of the eucalyptus
