Pohutakawa Flower



6x6in. Acrylic on board.

This is probably our most recognized national flower in NZ.  The trees are particularly suited to the coastal environment and thrive around our beaches and coast line.  The trees flower in late December to  January which is appropriate for the Christmas season.  They look amazing in flower, all ablaze in glorious red.
