This Kowhai tree is an offspring of the one producing the flowers in my previous post Here. It grew from a seedling, unfortunately very close to a window. Reluctantly I chopped it down about 5 years ago after it reached a couple of metres high to allow light into the house. . I left the stump - the cat liked to scratch it. It was a persistent little tree though and soon threw up new branches in defiance - so I let it be. It gets a severe pruning every year and as the flowers grow from second year wood they are much more sparce than on its parent tree, but just as beautiful.

Thanks for viewing, and Happy Friday to all :)
