A few ornamentals in Sydney botanical gardens

Theres more than just palms in the garden. An outstanding collection of trees, shrubs and Australian native plants as well as some great exotics. Along with some spectacular views of the harbour and surrounds.

Beautiful pics! What's the fourth pic, after the angel trumpet? Thanks.

Not sure there is a hoop pine next to it, so it’s possibly an Australian pine.

I highly recommend you take a trip down under and visit the gardens.

Of course, Richard, Australia is a great country and continent. I would love to visit Australia. When traveling from Australia to Chile, you always have a layover in New Zealand, but there are direct flights as well. Now I'm waiting for a small batch of seeds I bought in Australia. I hope they arrive.

Yes I went to Argentina  once and that was a stopover in New Zealand and from there a very long flight. What seeds did you purchase from Australia?

Great, Richard. Our three countries, Australia, Chile, and New Zealand, dominate the southern tip of the hemisphere and control the entire south in trade, tourism, and business, interacting freely as if we were a single confederation. I bought some Syagrus insignus seeds.
