\n<\/b>This is Corymbia ficifolia, <\/span>formerly Eucalyptus ficifolia, <\/span>Red-flowered Gum<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Thanks, … for the Id.<\/div>\n
Here are some interesting extracts from Wikipedia link:http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/<\/font>wiki\/Corymbia_ficifolia<\/font><\/a><\/div>\n
Corymbia ficifolia<\/i> or the Red Flowering Gum<\/b> (previously known as Eucalyptus ficifolia<\/i>) is one of the most commonly planted ornamental <\/font>trees<\/font><\/a> in the broader <\/font>eucalyptus<\/font><\/a> family. <\/font>It is native to a very small area of south coastal <\/font>Western Australia<\/font><\/a> (measured in just tens of kilometres) to the east of <\/font>Walpole<\/font><\/a> (430 km Southeast of <\/font>Perth<\/font><\/a>), but is not considered under threat in the wild.<\/font><\/div>\n
The common name, “Red Flowering Gum<\/b>” is often used, but generally not to indicate Corymbia ficifolia<\/i> in particular as opposed to it and other similar looking trees. The name is also something of a misnomer; all gums flower, many are red, Corymbia ficifolia<\/i> is not really a “gum” but a bloodwood<\/b>, and its flowers can be any shade between pale cream, through pink, to red, orange or deep crimson.<\/font><\/div>\n
In nature Corymbia ficifolia<\/i> prefers infertile, sandy soils but it is readily adaptable to most temperate locations, provided it is not exposed to severe frost or sustained tropical damp. It is an ideal street tree as it is hardy, moderately fast growing, and rarely grows large enough to require pruning.<\/font><\/div>\n
It is difficult to graft but grows well from seed, typically taking about 7 years before it flowers for the first time and 15-20 years to reach something approaching its full size of anything between 2-8 m. For the home gardener, buying a “red flowering gum” from a nursery is something of an adventure: it may or may not be a ficifolia<\/i>, and the flower colour does not breed true – there is no way to find out what colour the flowers will be short of planting a seedling and waiting for it to reach maturity.<\/font><\/p>\n
