I think Spring is in the air...
Thanks to everyone who helped me figure out what kind of tree this is! It's a weeping bottlebrush!

My trees are blooming...
I love, love, love the red puffy blooms on these trees. I am so lucky and grateful to have one of these luscious trees right in front of my condo.

Not sure what sort of tree that is, but I'm trying to work it out.
Our trees are losing their leaves here because it's mid-autumn in our neck of the woods.
I posted a picture on Facebook to get help and now I know that it is a weeping bottlebrush from the mrytle family.
I believe that the latin word for this tree is Callistemon viminalis, and there are different varieties, as shown on this link: http://images.google.com/images?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=WZPA,WZPA:2006-10,WZPA:en&q=Callistemon+viminalis
a very pretty tree - wish we had one here.
