Further evidence that warm winter and rain diminished the yellow bloomers, who kept their leaves year-round this time:

Actually a commonly planted native street tree in Darwin ( Northern Territory of AU )
The Darwin City Council planted some on the verges of my street in late June 2021. A bad time to plant being the depths of the 'dry season'   but its also the end of the financial year in AU, so if ya dont spend the budget, well ya miss out.

A tough time of the year botanically... no rain whatsoever for 4-5 months...

Anyways, I took it upon myself to keep 'em alive, using my special brew of recycled beer ( via kidneys ) watered down in buckets of water )... worked just fine... 12 months later doing just fine !!


I took these pics just now ( 2 years later )




They look like this in semi maturity ( outside the local Tavern )
