Cee’s Flower of the Day – August 16, 2019: The Bottle Brush

Flowers, Nature, Photography and Art, San Francisco

The Bottle Brush Tree is native to Australia.

The Bottlebrush is known as the essence of the Kookaburra, it holds abundance, laughter, and joy just like the bird itself. The flowers of the bottlebrush are used to celebrate birth and all that’s new.

Bright red floral brushes, are the color of our life-blood, the color of passion and love, blooming after rain they represent fertility and love. Their bottlebrush name invokes banishing, cleansing and renewing energies. Red, the color of fire, they represent death and rebirth, doorways and entrance to the underworld.
