The water gum or kanooka, is a tree species native to Australia. It usually grows near the eastern coastline and along the banks of streams, where the trunks and branches tend to be shaped in the direction of the current and give an indication of the flood height.
I have a particularly lovely specimen growing in my backyard. This year it was a mass of flowers in November - December. It has flowered every year since I have lived in my present house since 2014, but has never been so beautiful as last year. This was maybe due to the good rainfalls we had in October.
