Names and natures often agree and so do bottlebrush (Callistemon) trees. Bottlebrush (Callistemon) is native to Australia but can be found across Japan. Bottlebrush is known in Japan as "
burashi no ki," which translates into "brush tree" (easy to understand), but also "
kinpouju," which translates into "golden treasure tree," due to their anthers, which turn golden as they fill with pollen.
I still remember when I saw them for the first time. I was so surprised that I climbed a wall surrounding the tree to take their close-up photos without realizing how dangerous it could be. So reckless, but I couldn't resist. Luckily, I wasn't hurt!
Some flowers in the post are pink, called Callistemon 'Pink Champagne.'
