When we were recently in Traralgon we went for a walk through Victory Park. We noticed this beautiful tree in bloom and none of us knew what type of tree it was. Can you help me out with a name?
The blossom reminded me a little of wild clematis but this is a tree not a climber.
Gippsland Granny 
Sorry i don’t know but it is very lovely.
Sorry can’t help but it’s so pretty 🌸 hope you find out what it is.
Thanks Miriam. I am on a trail.
Absolutely stunning, and I think it could be a calodendron capense, or Cape Chestnut, however don’t quote me on that. Whatever, it’s gorgeous.
Thanks. I will check those species out in my gardening books.
Thank you. It looks as though it is a Cape Chestnut/ Calodendron capense. It certainly looks like the one in my What Tree is That? book.
